Is anyone here hosting their own dyndns setup?

  Not yet, but this looks interesting: https://github.com/asmaps/hopper.pw https://github.com/asmaps/hopper.pw

  Yeah, I wrote a little http endpoint that I access with curl in a cron job. The server updates my master DNS git repo and which then updates the data in Route 53. The DNS stuff is based on a Perl module I wrote called Net::DNS::Create [1]. It allows you to use a little DSL-ish language to create your DNS entries, then compile them into whatever DNS backend you want (Bind, TinyDNS, and Route53 are supported out of the box, and all have been used in production at some point). A quick example of what this might look like is here: https://github.com/caldwell/net-dns-create/blob/master/create.example https://github.com/caldwell/net-dns-create/blob/master/creat...

  Yes, I did (and will do again). Previously I used bind/named for a subdomain, something like d.someshortdomainofmine.tld for a dynamic namespace and updated entries below with a cronjob calling nsupdate -k /path/to/a/key << _EOF_ server my.server.here zone d.someshortdomainofmine.tld update delete foo.d.someshortdomainofmine.tld update add foo.d.someshortdomainofmine.tld 300 AAAA ipv6here show send _EOF_ which worked just fine and took roughly 20min to get right, including the DNS entries. I'm currently moving to NSD and I'll implement something similar there.

  For anyone that happens to use PointDNS DNS hosting (it's free for a single domain I believe), I've written a small script to be called from cron. https://github.com/vortura/point-dyndns https://github.com/vortura/point-dyndns
