Just to reiterate what was said previously. Astaro does NOT yet support CUSTOM DynDNS. Below is a method to provide a work around. Follow these steps.
1. Make a copy of the dyndns.conf file. This file is in /etc. Make a copy called ez-ipupdate.conf
2. Using vi edit the ez-ipupdate.conf file to look like this (replacing the info with your own of course):
Code:
service-type=dyndns-custom
user=username[:P]assword
host=mydomain.com.au,www.mydomain.com.au,mail.mydomain.com.au
mx=mail.mydomain.com.au
interface=ppp0
max-interval=86400
cache-file=/opt/tmpfs/ez-ipupdate.cache
daemon
3. Make sure dyndns is turned on in webmin.
4. Edit the startup file. The startup file is in the /var/mdw/scripts directory and called dyndns. Change the line that reads ARGS=" -c /etc/dyndns.conf" to read ARGS=" -c /etc/ez-ipupdate.conf"
5. That is all the changes. Now you can either restart your box or just kill the ez-ipupdate process and let the selfmonitor restart it.
As said months ago it would be nice if Astaro would include the extra options in webmin as it is a nobraineer kind of change. But I guess its not up there on there list of priorities.
Anyway, hope this helps someone out there..... and remember to have fun....
