Topic: DYNDNS

[Rick Copeland]

I am new to this and having a problem with the DYNDNS client. I have a commercial account with DYNDNS and have read and searched through the threads here for my answer. I have run the dyndns located in /sbin/e-smith/dynamic-dns several times and I recieve an error message "Bad Authorization String" syntax as follows: dyndns [IP] [username] [password] [domain] . I even edited the dyndns file and put these parameters into the file where applicable with no joy. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

I had a simular problem which this fixed.

i had to change the dyndns update script

/sbin/e-smith/dynamic-dns/dyndns.org

on line 20 from

system=dynamic\&hostname="$DOMAIN"\&myip="$IPADDR"\&wildcard=ON

to

system=custom\&hostname="$DOMAIN"\&myip="$IPADDR"\&wildcard=ON

give it a try...
