DynuIPRefresher

A lightweight C++ application to setup a service for refreshing a dynamic IP to the Dynu servers. Dynu.com is a free DDns service and provides an API. There is also a GUI for Windows Users and beginners.

Installation

Download the latest Release at Release_Page. I'm providing executables for Debian/Ubuntu (.deb) and RHEL/Debian (.rpm). But you can still compile the code my your own (see build section).

Configuration

There is a configuration file /etc/dynuiprefresher.cfg where you have to specify the DYNU API key (get it from their homepage), the domainid and your domain. Furthermore, you can optionally specify a Telegram API key and a Chat ID if you want to be notfied when your local ip changes.

To enable and start the service: systemctl enable dynuiprefresher.service and systemctl start dynuiprefresher.service

Usage

First of all configure the right keys in the /etc/dynuiprefresher.cfg or %appdata%\DynuIpRefresher\dynuiprefresher.cfg config file.

Afterwards use the following options:

help page: 
[-h] [--help]  print this help page
[-v] [--version] print the software version
[-f] [--force] force refresh of ip
[-l] [--loop] infinite loop to refresh ip every five minutes
[-c] [--checkconfig] validate configuration
[-ip] [--currentip] get current global ip
[no argument] normal ip check and refresh

GUI

You can also build the grapical user inteface if you want. There you can manually trigger a refresh in a gui and set all the config parameters.
