Now I'm considering changing to | another provider with dynamic IPs. I have three domains hosted in my | SOHO server (let's say example1.com, example2.com and example3.com) | including mail for two of them. The questions are: |=20 | 1. Which dynamic DNS provider do you prefer and why (I would prefer a f= ree one)? www.zoneedit.com I won't say I prefer it, I only tried this one and never felt the need to change; it is free | | 2. Which is the best dynamic DNS client available in Gentoo,=20 I believe ddclient is the standard client; it works like a charm; the config file already has it all set up for dynsys.org or zoneedit.org, so it's fairly easy; it can be on any of your computers, ie not necessarily on the router - of course it has to be awake all the time though.=20 | taking | into accout that it must be able to discover the DSL router's | dynamically assigned IP and connect with the chosen provider? Well, what else would you expect of such a program? :- ) cheers --=20 Jean Magnan de Bornier | Cours Victor Hugo e-mots: jean at bornier.net | 13980 Alleins France T 08 70 39 34 03 | P 06 09 17 35 87 --=20 gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
