IP address never updated on freedns.afraid.org about inadyn HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi Jocelyn!

Sorry to hear of your problems. FreeDNS is one of the DDNS providers that I myself actually have an account on and can test, but I've never had any problems like you describe. If I build the latest Inadyn from GitHub I get the following result for my own domain:

That last line indicates successful transfer of the IP address to the server.

My inadyn.conf looks like this, with my credentials X:ed out

period         600
forced-update 604800
cache-dir /etc/inadyn

system [email protected]
  ssl
  username XXXXXXXX
  password XXXXXXXX
  alias troglobit.homenet.org

Are you sure your credentials are OK?

Hi Joachim,

Thank a lot for your quick answer! I appreciate.

You are right, I verify my credentials and found I put my email address instead of my freedns UserID. I restart inadyn, and this is the log I got. I think it will works fine when my Internet Provider will change my IP address. I feel so stupid to have disturb you about this issue. Again, a big thanks for your help and for sharing your good application!

Have a nice day.
Best Regards
Jocelyn
