Dynamic DNS using dnsExit
« on: June 08, 2005, 04:57:13 PM »
I have a need to use the dnsEXIT service and need some assistance from someone with much more knowledge than I have.

The instructions to what I need to do are:
http://serve.me.nus.edu.sg/limcg/getip.html

I have not used the installer as I did not think everything would be the same. So, I have started a manual install.

I installed getipd in /usr/local/bin and modified to reflect my account information as discussed in the instruction document.

The second step is to place the gipd daemon startup script into /etc/init.d.

This is where I guess I require someone's assistance. How would I add this to the startup scripts so that it will automatically start?

Thanks in advance.

What is the problem? Put the STARTUP script under /etc/rc.d/init.d (or via symlink /etc/init.d) and when the server reboot, all files included under the init.d directory are executed.

Yes, thanks... It was actually a permissions problem. Thanks for your reply.
