README for dyndnscd

dyndnscd is the dyndns client daemon. It is a daemon that continually polls for IP address changes an in the event of a change, triggers an IP address update. It is somewhat configurable.

Downloading

You can find the latest version and the git repository of dyndnscd under the following URL: http://github.com/akrennmair/dyndnscd/

Installation

Run go get github.com/akrennmair/dyndnscd, then run it like this: dyndnscd -f configfile.yaml

Configuration

The configuration is a YAML file, consisting of a list of configuration sections. Every section defines the IP polling mechanism with a type (allowed values: device, ipbouncer). The device type regularly polls the IPv4 address of a network device (specified by the configuration key device), while the ipbouncer regularly polls the IPv4 address by calling a bouncer URL. A bouncer URL returns the client's IP address as the only content of the response body, and is configured with the configuration key bouncer_url.

The URL update is configured with the configuraton key update_url. Simply write <ip> (no quotes) where the client IP shall be inserted. dyndnscd will replace it with the IP and will do a GET request on the resulting URL.

To configure the polling interval, use the configuration key interval (defines the minimum amount of time between two polling attempts). If no interval is specified, it defaults to 60 seconds.

Example 1

- name: dyndns-bouncer
  type: ipbouncer
  bouncer_url: http://example.com/ip-bouncer
  update_url: http://username:[email protected]/nic/update?hostname=example.dyndns.org&myip=<ip>&wildcard=NOCHG&mx=NOCHG&backmx=NOCHG

Example 2

- name: dyndns-eth0
  type: device
  device: eth0
  update_url: http://example.com/?myip=<ip>
