Dynamic DNS

<< < (2/2)

JamminR:
atomic, its still not gonna work.

--- Code: --->nslookup server1.atomicsparkonline.net 67.15.250.6
Server:  ns1.siteground133.com
Address:  67.15.250.6

Name:    server1.atomicsparkonline.net
Address:  67.15.250.6

--- End code ---

Only way it would work is if name servers returned YOUR ip address on that lookup, not thier name server.
I use no-ip.com. I don't get to create any blah.com address I want, but can create any blah.<large_selection_they_offer_here>.com
If I lookup jamminr.no-ip.com .. it resolves to whatever external ip I have at the moment, not thier server ip like your DDNS seems to do.
I have no idea if they allow multiple <blah>.<one_you_chose_from_thier_list_here>.com addresses, or what charge they would be.
(I know I get one free)
I've not logged into that site directly for over two or three years, so can't log in to see what I have.

atomicspark:
Ah I see. So it's just a glorified redirection. I'll wait for my support response and go from there. I removed it for now.

JamminR:
www.no-ip.com
They have several various options. Some free. Some cost.
Here's what I have for the free stuff.
http://www.no-ip.com/services/managed_dns/free_dynamic_dns.html
Like mentioned though, free, you wouldn't get to use atomicsparkonline.net
atomicsparkonline1.<list_they_provide,shorter_for_free>.<something> would work.

When I first joined a few years ago, I couldn't have more than one.
I now see that I can have up to 5 subdomains with different IPs.
They have 5 options for redirect (Web like yours does now, A record (like I have now), and a few others)

Might be worth at least looking at.

Megiddo:
Check out http://freedns.afraid.org/

I've used them a lot in the past, give you pretty much complete control over the domain and it's all free!

Bad part is it won't automatically update but oh well.

atomicspark:
Ugh I got a response back and they said put a meta refresh in the index.html of the subdomian folder. Idiots. I'll checkout the others you mentioned tho. I'm afraid I can't have a subdomain goto another IP without having an HTML page in the middle. It probably isn't worth it to try to get URL links to my servers. Oh well. :(
