Getting started
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
Assuming NetBSD-style rc(8), to enable...
|
|
|
|
Dynamic-capable authoritative DNS service:
|
|
- Choose the domain for dynamic hostnames and the server IP.
|
|
- Run "echo your.dyn.domain > @PKG_SYSCONFDIR@/domain".
|
|
- Set tinydyndns=YES (and tinydyndns_ip) in /etc/rc.conf.
|
|
- Run "@RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR@/tinydyndns start".
|
|
- Arrange for the domain to be delegated to your new DNS server.
|
|
|
|
Dynamic DNS updates via POP3:
|
|
- Set tinydynpop3d=YES in /etc/rc.conf.
|
|
- Run "@RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR@/tinydynpop3d start".
|
|
|
|
A new dynamic-DNS hostname:
|
|
- Run "tinydyndns-passwd <hostname> <password>".
|
|
- Configure a POP3 client with the same username (hostname) and password.
|
|
|
|
Without a POP3 client:
|
|
- Copy the output of "tinydyndns-make-client <hostname>" to the desired system.
|
|
- Store the password in the client script (or perhaps a password vault).
|
|
- Run the client script from cron, when your IP changes, or as you prefer.
