################################################################# # In order to enable dynamic dns you need at least one section, # and in that seciton the "enabled" option must be set to one # # Each section represents an update to a different service # # You specify your domain name, your username and your password # with the optins "domain", "username" and "password" respectively # # Next you need to specify the name of the service you are # connecting to "eg. dyndns.org". The format of the update # urls for several different dynamic dns services is specified # in the /usr/lib/ddns/services file. This list is hardly complete # as there are many, many different dynamic dns services. If your # service is on the list you can merely specify it with the # "service_name" option. Otherwise you will need to determine # the format of the url to update with. You can either add an # entry to the /usr/lib/ddns/services file or specify this with # the "update_url" option. # # We also need to specify the source of the ip address to associate with # your domain. The "ip_source" option can be "network", "interface" # or "web", with "network" as the default. # # If "ip_source" is "network" you specify a network section in your # /etc/network config file (e.g. "wan", which is the default) with # the "ip_network" option. If you specify "wan", you will update # with whatever the ip for your wan is. # # If "ip_source" is "interface" you specify a hardware interface # (e.g. "eth1") and whatever the current ip of this interface is # will be associated with the domain when an update is performed. # # The last possibility is that "ip_source" is "web", which means # that in order to obtain our ip address we will connect to a # website, and the first valid ip address listed on that page # will be assumed to be ours. If you are behind another firewall # this is the best option since none of the local networks or # interfaces will have the external ip. The website to connect # to is specified by the "ip_url" option. You may specify multiple # urls in the option, separated by whitespace. # # Finally we need to specify how often to check whether we need # to check whether the ip address has changed (and if so update # it) and how often we need to force an update ( many services # will expire your domain if you don't connect and do an update # every so often). Use the "check_interval" to specify how # often to check whether an update is necessary, and the # "force_interval" option to specify how often to force an # update. Specify the units for these values with the "check_unit" # and the "force_unit" options. Units can be "days", "hours", # "minutes" or "seconds". The default force_unit is hours and the # default check_unit is seconds. The default check_interval is # 600 seconds, or ten minutes. The default force_interval is # 72 hours or 3 days. # # ######################################################### config service "myddns" option enabled "0" option service_name "dyndns.org" option domain "mypersonaldomain.dyndns.org" option username "myusername" option password "mypassword" option ip_source "network" option ip_network "wan" option force_interval "72" option force_unit "hours" option check_interval "10" option check_unit "minutes" #option ip_source "interface" #option ip_interface "eth0.1" #option ip_source "web" #option ip_url "http://www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp" #option update_url "http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@members.dyndns.org/nic/update?hostname=[DOMAIN]&myip=[IP]"
