Ok, instead of afraid.org, use dnsexit.com. 1) Create an account on dnsexit.com 2) Download domainUpdate perl script from http://downloads.dnsexit.com/domainUpdate.zip 3) Change these variables in the script my $user = 'xxxxxxx'; my $pass = 'yyyyyyyy'; my $domain = 'mydomain'; my @network = `ifconfig ppp0`; my $ipfile = '/usr/local/src/domainUpdate/last_ip'; 4) Create a symlink in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d to the script. This will ensure, whenever your pppd reconnects, it runs the script. It is assuming that you run pppoe from your local machine and your DSL router is in bridge mode. 5) Create DNS entry in dnsexit webGUI for your domain. 6) Now, call domainUpdate.pl manually and run following command to check if your IP address has been updated on dnsexit nameservers: dig @ns3.dnsexit.com yourdomain.com 7) Go to the control panel of your domain registrar and change your nameservers there to ns3.dnsexit.com ns4.dnsexit.com ns1.dnsexit.com ns2.dnsexit.com 8) Try reconnecting your ppp session and follow step 6 again to verify, if your script is running properly. regards, Nishant -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
