ddns

A self-hosted Dynamic DNS solution similar to DynDNS or NO-IP.

You can use a hosted version at ddns.pboehm.org where you can register a host under the d.pboehm.de domain (e.g test.d.pboehm.de).

How can I update my IP if it changes?

ddns is built around a small webservice, so that you can update your IP address, simply by calling an URL periodically through curl (using cron). Hosts that haven't been updated for 10 days will be automatically removed. This can be configured in your own instance.

An API similar to DynDNS/NO-IP hasn't been implemented yet.

Requirements for self-hosting

• A custom domain where the registrar allows NS-Records for subdomains
• A global accessible Server running an OS which is supported by the tools listed below
• A running Redis instance for data storage
• An installation of PowerDNS with the Pipe-Backend included
• Go 1.3
