Unit193Howdy.19:55
cid420How you been doing Unit19319:56
Unit193Not too bad I suppose, trying the tabwin branch of xfwm and baking a new kernel.19:58
Unit193You?19:58
cid420not bad, trying to setup a DNS with 1 ip address, i dont know if it can be done. i purchased a domain and set up nameserver on 1 ip address20:13
cid420damn my cable company can shell out a static for me. but it will cost 20 bucks for it lol forget that21:37
cid420I guess i can use the dynamic, just have to change it everytime it changes from the cable company.21:47
Unit193Where'd you get the domain from?21:48
cid420i got it from network solutions21:48
cid420the domains are going for 50 cents21:48
cid420i want to register the domain on my server, don't i need to setup the nameservers to do that Unit?21:49
Unit193I got mine from namecheap, they host it or let you do it.  They also have an API that you can use in ddclient (or, in my case, I could slap it in the router.)21:50
cid420yes i also have one from namecheap21:51
cid420oh please explain more on the api and dhclient.21:51
Unit193ddclient, it's used for dynamic IPs, DynDNS being one host that's fairly well known. https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/583/21:52
jenni[ How to configure DDClient?(Dynamic DNS) • Namecheap.com Knowledgebase ] - https://j.mp/IsOMQ221:52
cid420thanks Unit21:53
Unit193Sure.  I've not used the API, but nevertheless.21:53
cid420and ddclient is linux base?21:54
Unit193No, it's installable.  dhclient != ddclient22:05
cid420yea just figured that out.. i am trying to understand the conf file, and where to obtain this information22:06
cid420how would i know if it is working?22:09

cid420my bad for interrupting all of you with all these questions, i figure you guys are busy.22:40
Unit193Tad, but more that I've only used ddclient once.22:41
Unit193I seem to have a use= var defined, but perhaps you don't need such a thing.22:42
