Marcs Updater

There have been some reports about issues with the Updater not updating anymore. Please try the latest beta version and switch to another IP Check provider instead of the previous default dnsomatic.com. For some reason they are rate-limiting the number of requests to their service. The new IP Check provider selection allows you to choose another provider in such cases. You can test the functionality with the new "Test" panel.

If you want to add a custom provider to the unstable testing version, store a JSON file like the following under %PROGRAMDATA%\Marcs Updater\ServiceProviders\dyndns.json:

{
    "name": "DynDNS.org (Test)",
    "endpoint": "https://members.dyndns.org/nic/update",
    "method": "GET",
    "queryString": "hostname={HOSTNAME}&myip={MYIP}",
    "dataPayload": "",
    "defaults": {
        "username": "test",
        "password": "test",
        "hostname": "test1.customtest.dyndns.org"
    }
}

Supported query and payload tags are {USERNAME}, {PASSWORD}, {HOSTNAME} and {MYIP}. Restart the background service and foreground application to apply any changes.

Is possible to add Internet.bs DDNS service ( http://www.internetbs.net ) ?

https://dyndns.topdns.com/update?hostname=

it is possible to use wget to update the ip. Here is a sample url:

AutoIP
https://dyndns.topdns.com/update?hostname=mydomain.tld&username=myusername&password=mypassword

Personalized IP
https://dyndns.topdns.com/update?hostname=mydomain.tld&username=myusername&password=mypassword&myip=1.2.3.4

To put ddns offline
https://dyndns.topdns.com/update?hostname=mydomain.tld&username=myusername&password=mypassword&offline=yes

Note both URLs i gave you are using https but you can also use http however, for security reasons, we
recommend using https.
thanks

I would like to add dyndns.topdns.com for the next version. Does your HTTPS update URL also support basic authentication with username and password instead of query parameters?
