I'm using freedns.afraid.org and I'm a little confused about this DDNS field.
So I've got my username, password... what is supposed to be in that third field? I have numerous domains registered with FreeDNS.
Our DDNS Feature on the Almond supports the following providers:
- dyndns.org
- freedns.org
- zoneedit.com
- no-ip.com
You are attempting to configure a "
freedns.afraid.org", address so your Almond should definitely be able to support
one of your addresses.
- Select "freedns.afraid.org" from the DDNS Provider pulldown
- Account name = Your "freedns.afraid.org" username
- Password = Your "freedns.afraid.org" password
- DDNS = One of your addresses registered with "freedns.afraid.org" service
If you need to support more than a single DDNS address for your IP address, you will probably want to install something like "
inadyn" on a Windows or Linux PC inside your network for registering any "additional" DDNS addresses against your external IP address.
Your Almond can only be setup to register a
single DDNS address at a time, but you can register as many addresses as you want if you run "
inadyn" (or simlar) in one of your internal machines. If you are trying to host multiple Websites for example you might want to install "
inadyn" on the WebServer machine, so that you can configure your secondary DDNS names, and Website content on the same machine.
I hope this clarification assists you in resolving your issues with our DDNS configuration screen. Please don't hestifate to reply agan if you have further quiestions about this feature.
