ddclient - DNS record updating
ddclient is a client for updating dynamic DNS entries for domains hosted at different DNS providers.
Use this contrib when you have a sme server connected to a ISP service using a dynamic IP, and you wish to host multiple domains.
This page provides a link to an externally hosted ddclient contrib for sme7.x
Download the latest rpm version from
http://smeserver.free.fr/Files/index.php?dir=sme7/
to an empty folder eg /tmp
Alternatively use the wget command shown below.
The currently available rpm is:
sme7-ddclient-3.7.3-4.noarch.rpm
Then cd to that folder and install the rpm (change the rpm name in the following command to match the latest available version)
cd /tmp wget http://smeserver.free.fr/Files/sme7/sme7-ddclient-3.7.3-4.noarch.rpm yum localinstall sme7-ddclient*.rpm
There is no need to run the signal-event post-upgrade and reboot commands.
A new panel will be added to the server manager.
Use this panel to configure domain records you wish to keep updated with your dynamic IP using the ddclient contrib
