dynip is a daemon that monitors your host system ISP assigned dynamic IP
|
||
|
address. If it changes, dynip automatically updates the dynamic DNS IP
|
||
|
address at your dynamic DNS hosting provider then posts an informational
|
||
|
message to the host system log followed by sending an informational email
|
||
|
to user root.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The dynip daemon and the daily script are very simple Bourne Shell type
|
||
|
scripts containing self documenting embedded comments. They use the
|
||
|
"fetch" command to issue the standard browser style URL format used by
|
||
|
most dynamic DNS hosting providers for the purpose of actual updating
|
||
|
the registered IP address with the new IP address. There are some small
|
||
|
variations in the URL format depending on the dynamic DNS hosting
|
||
|
provider being used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Mandatory requirements. The host that is running dynip "MUST" be cabled
|
||
|
directly to the ISP modem and be using the public routable dynamic IP
|
||
|
address assigned by the ISP.
|

and is simple to configure for other providers that use a variation
|
||
|
of the URL format.
