I have my own domains, with GoDaddy.com and a dedicated server with Codero (Windows Server 2008 and Plesk 10), any chance of being able to update a sub-domain with my home ip? So basically home.domain.com will take my to my home IP.

I've been using No-IP.org for the past couple of months, but having to login every 30 days is annoying.

If you do something similar, how do you do it?

I was thinking about moving to NameCheap.com but since I use my dedicated server's DNS, the domains just use my name server. So it wont make a difference will it?

This is ez pz. Here is what I do:

  • Set up a DynDNS for whatever name you want, such as Example.dyndns.com
  • Make a subdomain on your domain, I did something like "sub.example.com"
  • Point sub.example.com with a CNAME redirect to "Example.dyndns.com".
Now when your DynDNS address updates, the real subdomain will just be a domain redirect.

If the 30days is an issue, use dlinkddns.com and setup your updater to force update every few days.
 
Currently I have it setup with home.domain.com pointing to my home.no-ip.org address and that works. It really is just the 30 days that is annoying to me.

I'll check out dlinkddns.com
 
afraid.org how can I use them with my own domain? Cause home.domain is better than just a forwarder.

If not it still is perfect. Thank you AnotherUser!

I use no-ip, just payed for 3 yrs at once and dont give it a second thought.
(although its for me to use to connect to my SBS customers on non static internet service to support them, a few of them have had no problem paying me the $20 I charge to provide them a web URL so they can view there security cams from home..which is more than I pay no-ip = win)

Exactly- I use it just to make accessing customer servers easy. I use both DynDNS and No-IP. My time is worth more than clicking in every month just to save a couple bucks.

The exact correct answer.

Though just for reference, dlinkddns.com is DynDNS under the hood. Just go with the source.
