Problem with DNS

[dnieu]

I have a normal DSL account with no Static IP.
To point to my machine I use dyndns.org and no-ip.org

EHCP is setup on Ubuntu where the IP = xxx.xxx.16.40

Routers IP = xxx.xxx.16.254

dnsip = 196.43.38.190 this is my outside DNS

Now I have registered a domain at za.net and pointed to
the dyndns.org and no-ip.org

Everytime I wanne go to www.xxx.za.net it shows me now
that it cannot connect to the above dnsip.

The domain is pointing to my router but it gets the wrong information from EHCP.

Do I need a Static IP to run EHCP at home ?

static ip with ehcp is not a must, but, it is recomended.

because, with dyndns or noip, you cannot do a real hosting service, i think

make sure:
you redirected necessary ports from your router to your server.

can you access your server internally by http://internalip ?

can you access your server, from outside: http://youroutsideip

these are initial steps.
if all ok, test dns from outside..
howto/helper at http://www.ehcp.net/helper/yardim/cats.php is a good starting point.

All ports are open on Router.
The domain is registered and shows to dyndns.org and no-ip.org


EHCP
Local ip of server 192.168.16.60
dnsip (outside/real/static ip of server) 196.43.38.190


Router IP : 192.168.16.254

Real external IP : 41.243.xxx.223
Primary DNS : 196.43.38.190
Secondary DNS : 196.43.xxx


When I wanne see the domain www.xxxx.za.net it wants to connect to 196.43.38.190, and this is my outside DNS

Have already 5 domains on EHCP and it's working fine, for this 5 domains are hosted by another company, I only changed the cname's so that it should point to xxx.dyndns.org and it's working fine.

I have changed dnsip in EHCP to my real Static IP and it's working fine.

But this is not a solution for the problem.

Everytime my router reboots I need to change this dnsip in EHCP.

Any suggestions ?

yes, that is the real problem.
in this case, we need a patch to ehcp, that updates dns ip each time you re-connect/update your external ip.

what is tool that is provided with dyndns or no-ip.org ? (I dont know them much)
if there is a tool that say us current real/external ip, or ip that is registered in dyndns, then, i may write a small patch for ehcp, that updates that when needed..

that would be a permanent solution, isn't it ?

Options:

dnsip 41.xxx.169.223


After I change this dnsip do I need to
do a
Sync Dns
Sync Domains

What I'm trying to do is make small Windows appz, when IP change to connect to ehcp/misc Sql and post the new IP there.

You think this will work ?

I'm sorry for all the questions

dyndns you put the settings into you router.
and no-ip you download small windows program

no problem for questions,

I will try to help as much as I can, this site is for helping..

your procedure above is correct, (sync domains is not needed i think)

if you do a win app, that connect to ehcp and does it, that may solve your case,
but, I think to build a new patch for ehcp, that solves dynamic dns issues completely..

so, if you find a way to learn current dynamic ip of your router/dyndns, let me know.
i will also analyze this case.
