Duck dns is very usefull. I use to host a demo from a CRM portal my company sold at my house.
The problem was that I had dynamic IP and my isp shit router did not suport DNS services. So I made a simple script that would log in and acess the router information page, get the public IP and update in the DUCK dns with a curl.
Worked Like a charm.

- supersparrow 4y agoI use 1984 DNS to simplify updating my domains with my dynamic broadband IP. They have quite a nice API, so you can do this: curl "https://api.1984.is/1.0/freedns/?apikey=xxxxxxxxxxxx&domain=example.com&ip= https://api.1984.is/1.0/freedns/?apikey=xxxxxxxxxxxx&domain=..." If you don't define an IP in the endpoint, it'll automatically look at the IP the request came from.
- ResNet 4y agoDuck DNS is able to do the same thing. Pretty neat not needing to specify the IP.
- Ayesh 4y agoYeah most routers come with a fixed list of services, when they really mean is a list of protocols. I have a Huawei Fibre ONT, that only listed DynDNS, NoIP, and a few others. I could get away by using a NextDNS DNS override, and hosting my own script that forwarded the API call to the actual DDNS provider.
