22.1 Legacy Series / Re: os-ddclient
« on: March 20, 2022, 12:08:02 am »
Not sure if I should report this here or not, but os-ddclient doesn't seem to support the cPanel web call either.
(cPanel documentation)
Short version:
In cPanel you enable the DDNS feature for a domain or subdomain.
cPanel will then generate a unique URL when setting this up, something like this:
https://mydomain.com/cpanelwebcall/somecharactershere
When calling this link, no username, password, or other complicated things are needed.
Just submit the link. cPanel will update the appropriate records and returns a plain text reply, formatted like so:
(where 123.123.123.123 is obviously your public IP address)
The old DDNS in OPNSense handled this just fine by selecting "Custom", however "os-ddclient" (v1.3) doesn't work that way ...
Anyhoo - hope this is useful for the involved developer or developers - apologies if this is not the right place to report this. 😊
For reference, a similar request for pfSense (not by me).
