Good FOSS software and reliable service providers? Etc.
Any registrar worth using has an API for updating DNS entries.
I just found this with a quick search: https://github.com/qdm12/ddns-updater
exactly. I literally have a bash script that calls the API triggered by cron every 30 minutes. That’s it. Are people seriously using a freaking docker container for this?
Ah, a history would be nice. I’ve been thinking of keeping some stats to monitor when the connection goes down, and how often my IP changes.
Fortunately I’ve kept the same IP since i changed ISPs a few months ago.
Personally I still think docker is overkill for something that can be done with a bash script. But I also use a Pi 4 as my home server, so I need to be a little more scrupulous of CPU and RAM and storage than most :-)
I use http://www.duckdns.org/
Me too. I use uptime kuma to send the api request. then I also get uptime status 🙂
cloudflare + the dynamic dns plugin for opnsense.
Have done it via bash scripts for years. Never had a problem. Since a few months i use https://github.com/qdm12/ddns-updater
