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.

Would you please add a possibility for custom provider beside the preset providers?
In my case, my webhoster does offer dynDNS. They clame they use the standard for the DynDNS-protocol (http://dyn.com/support/developers/api/perform-update/)
This is the URL they provide to change the DNS
https://[username]:[password]@dyndns.binero.se/nic/update?hostname=[host]&myip=[ip]

So I assume that your tool needs input boxes for
* Username
* Password
* DynDNS (which in my case is dyndns.binero.se)
* Maybe a check-ip URL in case the one you provide will go down one day, we still can change to something else
* Hostnames: that is if one has more hostnames that needs update

And a tip; why not change your app name to "DynDNS Updater by Marc"? ;-)

Thank you!

Posted in discussion. I repost as request here:

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

Hi Marc

I'm wondering if you could add to the filtering feuture a functionality that uses mac address along with local network to recognize the current network that a pc is currently connected.

Hi Marc

I run http://activedns.co.za dynamic dns service which based in Cape Town, South Africa.
In South Africa we sometimes have different pricing for international and local traffic. And we even have things like local-only accounts (often used by lcoal business for intra-branch communications or VOIP systems.) making a South African service useful.

Would you be able to add us as an option to your updater?

We are compatible with the dyndns2 protocol, except that updates need to go to update.activedns.co.za instead.

Let me know. Thanks.

Add support for ChangeIP.com and allow your updater to work with both opendns and changeip at the same time. I use them both. Changeip.com used to provide a tool that did both, but they no longer do.

Thanks
