Dynamic DNS at World4You?
Hello,
I bought a .at domain from World4You to use for my home network.
Unfortunately, I cannot order a fixed IP address from my provider and have to work with DDNS.
What is the easiest way to point my domain to my router using DDNS?
Currently using no-ip, with a very long domain that I would like to change to the new one.
The easiest thing is if your router supports a DynDNS service you can enter there.
Then you just need to enter the DynDNS service as CNAME as IP, and then, for example,
Immich.deinedomain.at
Then what you have to do with your container via NGINX.
I’ve used this in shape for ~ 3-4 years.
Does World4You offer an API for DynDNS?
If no, you could use Cloudflare for DNS management, for example
In principle, you can also create CNAME entries on this noip domain.
Hi, thanks for the comment!
At World4You, I couldn’t find DynDNS service, even when searching.
They only have 0815 name servers and DNS entries.
Would the easiest way to use my no-ip domain for IP resolution?
About Cloudflare I don’t really want to do it, my plan would be to run Nginx as a docker on my NAS so that I can access Immich or Jellyfin without Wireguard VPN.
This would be the direct solution – CNAME to your No-IP domain, which always includes your current IP.
One doesn’t contradict the other. I also manage my domains by cloud flare (although registered elsewhere) and use both Immich and Jellyfin.
You can also use Cloudflare purely for DNS management, the proxy function can be (de)activated for each target entry. For example, I completely deactivated them for Immich, at Jellyfin I have active them, but the caching is disabled by rule.
For this, I can simply use the Cloudflare API and also proxy for the services that are less media oriented.
Then put stop cname entries on your no-ip domain, as written by @xxxcyberxxx.
All right!
Thanks for the information
