Dynamic DNS with FreeDNS.afraid.org

[Inflicted]

Greetings!

Is anybody here registered with FreeDNS (http://freedns.afraid.org/)?

It's a service whereby you can regsiter your domain name, for free, and it even has Dynamic DNS capabilities!

There are a couple of DNS client scripts for UNIX-based systems so that your ADSL IP address will update accordingly...

I've tried most of these scripts, but I seem to be getting errors because my networked computer can't resolve my external IP address correctly.

You can have a look at the various DNS client software here... http://freedns.afraid.org/scripts/freedns.clients.php

I just need to know... Does anyone have their own working script and willing to share it?

Thanks in advance!

i've written a perl script that connects to my router and gets the ip address from there. another way is to get the ip address from http://checkip.dyndns.org/.

you could probably download one of their scripts and see what they do then modify it to suit your needs... not going to do it for you though

another excellent place to find (minimal paid for) help is www.experts-exchange.com
