Does anyone have a DDNS-setup i can copy?
« on: July 06, 2022, 10:10:10 pm »
I am struggling with the ddclient-plugin setup, I don't really care about which service it is I think, as long as it is free, and i can just register there, I tried with a couple, but I seem to set it up wrong. Does anyone have a working setup i can copy, with any service?

Happy to help.  I use https://freemyip.com.

No need to register, just to go to the website and create the name of your domain and you will receive a token (save it!).

Below is a copy of my ddclient.conf file.  Enter your token on the password line and change the last line to match the domain name that you created.


daemon=360
syslog=yes
pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid
ssl=yes
verbose=yes
use=if, if=igb0
use=web, web=freemyip.com/checkip
protocol=freemyip,
password=YOUR_TOKEN
YOURDOMAIN.freemyip.com

Thanks a lot, but I can't find freemyip on the list of supported services in the ddclient plugin?

Not specifically listed in the Opnsense GUI but it is supported by the plugin. Select 'custom' for the service in the GUI.

I have attached a screenshot of my OPNsense Dyndns menu.  This minimal setup creates the initial ddclient.conf file.  After enabling and saving then manually edit the config file to match content from my first message.

Thanks, that worked, I had some network problems and was struggling about with finding the config file, so sorry about the very late reply.
