Just got an email from #NoIP; they're raising their prices and the email is essentially telling me to renew my domains before the price hike so I can avoid it a little longer. The email says you can renew for up to 10 years at once to push the updated price down the road.

Updated prices take effect January 6th.

#GoodMorning! #Noip.com is offering a free #DynDNS service. Nice, no problem with that. You have to pay to update the record automatically, no problem with that.

The shit goes wrong when you don't update the record and your domain goes into "redemption" and you cannot remove it or prolong it again unless you pay...

It would be better not to offer a free service than make it a fucking trap to force users to pay. If I've ever cosidered paying - they've lost me.

How feasible would it be to host your #email server directly on your phone (probably with something like #NoIP for DNS)? Most people keep their phones connected most of the time, or at least often enough that #SMTP retry attempts will probably get through...

So the DDNS scripts on my GL-iNet OpenWRT router were not quite reliable, so I decided to install the official #NoIP dynamic update client on my PiHole/VPN server to update my hostname. But, I remembered that inadyn had TLS as "optional", and NoIP themselves still have instructions on updating a hostname by literally putting your password in an unencrypted http request.

So, I did a packet capture on noip-duc. Turns out it does indeed use a secure https connection,

Because search is completely broken, I should probably just try asking here.

I'm looking for an alternative to using NOIP for my selfhosting journey. If there is a way to self-host an alternative I'm happy to give that a try and pay that cloud fee to a local company.

I have the three domain option at NOIP, but getting the 4th I need would mean jumping to the 10 domain tier, something that I'm not interested in doing.

Looks like I've just lost my #NoIP #DynamicDNS hostname that I've been confirming every month for a good 7 years (despite the server I used it for being down for the last 6), in the hope I'd be able to spin up my Gopher server again: it's just gone into redemption mode so I'd have to pay to get it back...

#RIP qselfgnk.ddns.net.

Brauche eure Hilfe.
Ich betreibe einen kleinen Heimserver.
-#Portweiterleitung in #FritzBox eingerichtet
-#DynDnS bei #noip (xxx.dds.net) eingerichtet und erfolgr. mit der FB verbunden

-> Komme ohne Probleme auf den Server.

Nun habe ich #ipv6 aktiviert.

-Portweiterleitung in der FB auf ipv4 + Ipv6 erweitert
-bei noip auf AAAA umgestellt,
-Dyndns erfolgr mit der FB verbunden.

Zugriff aus dem Internet
Zugriff aus dem eigenen (W)LAN

Was mache ich falsch?

I feel affirmed in my position that the future is #NoIP rather than #AllIP, and #offline rather than #online. :)

Traveling around the #sun long enough to have witnessed the #evolution from #SQL to #NoSQL and the evolution from #XML to #JSON, I'm looking forward to #witness the evolution from #AllIP to #NoIP.
