[HOW-TO] Xbian and dynamic DNS
Hi,
here is a small guide in order to install a dynamic dns service on Xbian. This is a revision of my old gude about it posted on ubuntu forums The service is free, let's start. First of all register your account on Freedns: http://freedns.afraid.org/menu/ Freedns offer a bunch of domain names I choose ignorelist.com: Assume that you register: <your_host>.ignorelist.com Install inadyn: Code: sudo apt-get install inadyn curl Once logged on open the url: http://freedns.afraid.org/dynamic/ Select the link Direct URL beside <your_host>.ignorelist.com Copy everything from the right of the ? in the browser address bar (alphanumeric string) something like 30ExSWg5MTRoMnB6XXZBUXZQ9999BTkxODQxNI== Create configuration file of inadyn: Code: sudo nano /etc/inadyn.conf And save this content: Code: --username <your_username> Add inadyn to crontab: Code: export EDITOR=nano && sudo crontab -e Edit the file to add the following line and save: Code: @reboot /usr/sbin/inadyn Reboot your PI ping <your_host>.ignorelist.com Done! |

RE: [HOW-TO] Xbian and dynamic DNS
Thanks a lot for this small tutorial!
I haven't tried freedns myself, I'm using NoIP: NoIP can also be used as a free dynamic DNS service. Here is the link to the installation and configuration: http://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/installing-the-linux-dynamic-update-client-on-ubuntu/ |

Hi, I think that you can use inadyn for no-ip DNS service too; just change the settings inside inadyn.conf that matching your no-ip account. The key settings are: username password alias dyndns_system I haven't try though D. |
