This latest version uses spyware-style tactics to get you to sign up for an "Internet Guide". This changes your DNS server settings, and blocks certain websites. Unacceptable if you ask me.

The setting is clearly marked and easy to disable (on startup or from the prefs later on), but this is something I expect on Windows apps. I've uninstalled it and migrated to a different solution...

I would really appreciate knowing the different solution you chose; my domain host doesn't provide a Mac client. Thanks!

Wonderfully done! Works great in 10.5.1 (the client software for no-ip.com doesn't).

I couldn't get previous versions of this to work and switched to JIP_DYNDNS which has worked fine ever since.

Unfortunately this version didin't seem to work with my set-up:

10.4.2 & Router

It grabs the LAN IP 192.*.*.* instead of my WAN.

It works under Tiger but with this and with DNSUpdate I get some error about not being able to start up the daemon and I have to do it manually through DynDNSUpdater and enter my password.

It was fine in 10.3.9 so I think both are broken.

I'm still using Julien's old DNSUpdate v2.7 and it works perfectly fine with Tiger 10.4.2. I have no idea what you mean with "broke under 10.4".

I really don't know why I should replace this fine working tool with a new one that has no rep and offers no benefit.

mmmm
its NOT working properly to me.... at boot time, do not refresh new IP with DynDns... old one -DNSUpdate 2.7- works until today.. like a charm.

( For testing porpouses, i remove old "DNSUpdate 2.7" and install a fresh copy of DynDNS ...i try to reinstall this new version, desintalling deamon, erasing ALL files, rebooting... ALL! ... and problems persist!)

i still using DNSupdate and work fine...
but i see this one its the same and i imagine with more "clean code" and better 10.4.x compatibility...

THANX!

Even with this new version, I still get the widget error message "the DynDNS Updater daemon refused a conenction...daemon is not compatible with this version of the DynDNS updater" (Using Snow Leopard). Any suggestions?

Under "Edit Host," change the Interface value from Default to External. My guess is you are most likely behind a Cable/DSL modem/router and are not having the modem forward it's IP to your machine.
