Hi,
i need some help with dyndns.
This is the How To File included with three others files.

#product, or on the same machine which the Astaro product resides,

Installation HowTo of DYNDNS services on ASL V3
Requirements
- ASL V3
- A packet filter allowing HTTP to the dyndns provider, if HTTP
proxy is enabled on the firewall it won't be nescessary!
- An Account on dyndns.org
Related files:
- dyndns; start/stop script for ez-ipupdate running in daemon mode
- dyndns.conf; sample configuration file to use with dyndns.org
- ez-ipudate; binary of the dyndns client
TODO
1) change the values for user and host in dyndns.conf
to fulfill your needs.
-----
user=username[:P]assword
host=hostname.dyndns_provider_domain
-----
2) move dyndns.conf to ASL:/etc
chmod 644 /etc/dyndns.conf
3) move dyndns to ASL:/etc/rc.d
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/dyndns
4) move ez-ipupdate to ASL:/usr/bin
chmod 755 /usr/bin/ez-ipupdate
5) cd to /etc/rc.d/rc3.d
Create symlinks pointing to ../dyndns
- ln -s ../dyndns K81dyndns
- ln -s ../dyndns S81dyndns
6) start the dyndns service "/etc/rc.d/dyndns start"
7) check if /tmp/ez-ipupdate.cache was written, if
yes the connection was successful.
8) Try to access the firewall by hostname
THAT'S IT ;-)) "
So my problem is to understand what they mean with "Create symlinks pointing to ../dyndns". I know how to creat symlinks but to .../dyndns ? whats this......the file dyndns in /etc folder or where? what i did is" - ln -s ../dyndns K81dyndns
and - ln -s ../dyndns S81dyndns". But i guess it is not really right.
