Setting Up Dynamic DNS For Your Domain
- Thread starter zeadmin
- Start date
you only have a DYN record for the wildcard *.mywebservice.it
You would need to add another where the host is the @ sign to denote the root domain of mywebservice.it
You would need to add another where the host is the @ sign to denote the root domain of mywebservice.it
I modified zonedit ddns with @ mywebservice.it but it does not work.
I also modified the ddns command of Cisco to update the mysebservice.it domain
Before it was configured like this:
zoneedit method -
add http: // wwinter2: Authentication Token@dynamic.zoneedit.com/auth/dynamic.html?host= <h> & dnsto = <a>
Dialer -
ip ddns update hostname * .mywebservice.it
ip ddns update zoneedit
and only * .mywebservice.it worked, not i can ping domain...
changing the dialer to:
ip ddns update hostname mywebservice.it (without asterisk)
only the domain works but I can not ping the hosts

Hi
My domain wiensville.com is registered with easydns. I am trying to use your free dynamic dns to point this to my home router. I was using dynamic dns through dyndns for the last few years, but have now cancelled that service.
To my (confused) view, I have tried to set this up at zoneedit. On the dns information screen (zone panel: dynamic records) it reports that home.wiensville.com has an IP. I have confirmed that this IP is correct (so I assume that the client on my asus router is properly communicating with you). However, attempts to ping home.wiensville.com fail (although attempts to ping the IP address directly do work). I set this up over 48 hours ago so I don't think that propogation should be the issue. What have I missed?
Also, would things be easier if I transferred the domain registration to you (or does that not matter as you and easydns appear to be associated companies?)
I also tried to set up www. wiensville. com but it shows as offline.
thanks,
Ken

- Your domain (and hosts) are not visible right now. No idea about what are you seeing in your control panel.
- Assuming you followed the instructions on the first message (video) or help article, you should have no A records, and your DYN records (could be one, or more) would show the current IP (WAN) address; perhaps that is what you refer.
- ZoneEdit uses its own way to manage information, in your case, from your router. Its different that dyndns.
- Yes ZoneEdit and EasyDNS are the same for practical purposes.

Hi Ken,
rberber is correct. Your domain is delegated to DYNDNS' nameservers still:

To avoid confusion, it might be a good idea to transfer the registration from EasyDNS to Zoneedit. However, you will lose phone support and will need to rely on Email support (as you'll be a premium Zoneedit member). You won't need to use the forums as other Free users do.

Hello
Router profiles are limited to no-ip and DynDNS. No manual option. Fark you TP-Link!
Would rather stick with zoneedit but cannot run a client on the router either.
However, the following little BASH script works fine retreiving the WAN IP when run on a box inside the network (not the router):
So all I need is to get the zoneedit update going.
After investigating the JavaScript client source code, it seems like a URL-based interface (API?) should work. But what is the syntax? The following seems to work, except I get no further than Failed login.
https://pd4:<token>@dynamic.zoneedit.com/dyn/jsclient.php?rsp_ident=zoneedit&hostname=11fa.dowling.id.au&password=<token>&username=pd4
Also tried just this:
https://dynamic.zoneedit.com/dyn/js...oneedit&hostname=11fa.dowling.id.au&password=<token>&username=pd4
I also tried HTTP Basic Auth. No luck.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Try this:

https://<username>:<dynamic auth token>@api.cp.zoneedit.com/dyn/generic.php?hostname=yourdomain.com&myip=1.1.1.1

Thanks Chris, that did the trick!
Do you think there might be a better way to document some of these settings? At least, I am not sure I could find the script name and variables no matter how hard I tried to filter the web.
