Dear list,
After struggling with ddclient (which turned out to be a problem with
the service provider) i looked into the software. ddclient has been
around for long, it has a lot of great functionality - but is not always
easy to tame.
I have set up new attempt. It's rather simplistic, but have some
strengths / differences:
- For better or worse, it's python.
- It's linux-centric.
- It's a plugin system, configuration in code rather then conffiles
- It provides user help for supported services
- Being a plugin system, it might be easier to maintain.
- It is ipv6-aware
- For now, it supports about 13 service providers, several listed by
Arch as not compatible with ddclient.
ddupdate is available
- on github (can be run without sinatllation):
https://github.com/leamas/ddupdate
- on pypi as package ddupdate: https://pypi.python.org/pypi
- fedora/mageia/epel packages on
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/leamas/ddupdate/
Feedback, here or on github, is of course welcome.
Cheers!
