What do you use? dyndns?

i guess there are many answers to the question above. The most famous maybe is DynDns. I just found a solution which seems a bit ‘nicer’. Have you ever heard of

dynni

well its new.

1. It supports ddclient
2. It supports inadyn
3. It has a resolver service
4. It supports mail routing
5. All nameservers are based in high quality data centers across Germany
6. Its absolutly free

So try it.

I tried it and it works! I use it for my openindiana homebox. The steps to use it are quit simple.

1. Create an new account at https://dynni.com
2. Get ddclient (maybe from http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ddclient)
3. Setup the config

   ssl=no
   protocol=dyndns2
   use=web, if=whatismyip.org
   server=update.dynni.com
   login=
   password=''

   and adjust login and password

4. Start ddclient

   ./ddclient -file config_file

5. Add a cronjob , here is mine<

   20,40 * * * * /home/jstephan/ddclient-3.7.3/ddclient -file ddclient.conf

6. Send emails to the owner of dynni and tell them that you read about dynni in my blog:-)

UPDATE! It took two weeks now to fix an issue that i had with my crontab. To be honest, it didnt work But i fixed it. So, here an update on what ive learnend.
To get an shell script running, and this ddclient call act as one, you need to edit your /etc/default/cron file and add

SHELL=/bin/bash

So now it works.
