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.

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/iprefresher.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 iprefresher.service and systemctl start iprefresher.service
