	DDNS Client for MAC & Linux

Solution The DNS2Go update service is compatible with the inadyn client. The client may be downloaded from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/inadyn-mt/files/inadyn-mt/

Inadyn installs to MAC and Linux systems.

To use the inadyn client with the DNS2Go service you will need to set the following parameters:

--dyndns_system custom@http_svr_basic_auth
--dyndns_server_name update.dns2go.com:80
--dyndns_server_url /update.aspx?inadyn=001153-XXXXX-XXXXX-nnnnnn* (where 001153-XXXXX-XXXXX-nnnnnn is your DNS2Go key followed by a *)
--alias mydomain.dns2go.com (where mydomain.dns2go.com is your dns2go domain)
--ip_server_name update.dns2go.com:80 /ipcheck.aspx (make sure there is a space between :80 and the /)
--update_period 60000

You can test your domain first by opening a web browser to: https://update.dns2go.com/update.aspx?inadyn=001153-XXXXX-XXXXX-nnnnnn*mydomain.dns2go.com

This should cause your domain to go online with the IP address you are connecting from.

When you use a web browser to test you should get back a response that looks like this: Code:0 Data:mydomain.dns2go.com;70.199.101.249;1

If you want to check your current IP address: https://update.dns2go.com/ipcheck.aspx
