How do I enable dynamic DNS?
I understand there are two methods:
On the local and DHCP/DNS, run your OS as a server, and dynamically update DNS at startup.
Manually update DNS records with any DynDNS services you use (I am using No-IP). For the first method, it seems you need to edit /etc/rc.local and add the commands in ####-####, however I get a syntax error after I enter "service ipmasq stop".
(Here's what my /etc/rc.local file looks like now, but if that helps) ipmasq start. Service ipmasq start. #######-####. #ipmasq stop. For #2, I am using No-IP as a service and I want to use the option Dynamic Update that it has to do this. What do I put in the "Dynamic Update" fields on the interface for DynDNS, and how do I add my dynamic-dns service? Use this command: sudo vi /etc/rc.local Add the following line to rc.local: Also add the following line (it just changes where the DNS is): dyninterfaces="eth1 eth0 lo". I added eth0 because eth0 was mine. Just take the one you need.
Why is my DDNS not working?
I have a domain name called example.
Com that redirects to my webhosts IP.
How I made it work is: Go to my webhosts, add another nameserver and put "example.com" as the IP of it (because it's not free, I bought an extra IP) I registered the domain with 1&1. I went back to my hosts and changed the "DNS Host Name" of my domain to 1&1.com because I had to signup on them website to actually manage the DNS records.
Then I had to fill in all the details to make it work, then I could set the A record as being my IP. After that everything was alright, it redirected from example.com to 1&1.com and then to my IP.
Well. For some reason now it works and I can access example.com but it doesn't redirect to 1&1.com, it doesn't show my homepage and the website shows me a message saying my DDNS doesn't work anymore and I have to check this page every 24 hours to make it work again.
Why is that happening? Why is it not redirecting to my IP address? Can you help me please? Also, does 1&1.com work well? I had a similar problem with my old webhost, it didn't work when I moved the site to new webhost. The DNS Host Name was the IP of the old webhost.
Hello. You have to edit your Domain (A) Record not 1&1. Your webhost will tell you what you have to do when you change the dns host name, they will always update the A record which will work ok if you are using the one you have to change. The issue is not with the dns you change it and wait 24 hours. But I don't think that is the problem.
Why is SoftEther VPN not working?
It's not SoftEther VPN.
It's just a VPN. SoftEther uses VPN technology to protect your privacy. The same is true of other virtual private network (VPN) software such as NordVPN, OpenVPN, Private Internet Access, Mullvad, ExpressVPN, and Zenmate.
There are two different types of VPN software: virtual private networks (VPNs) and secure remote access products. Secure remote access software enables you to access a company's organization's intranet from outside the company's organization's firewall. Secure remote access software can be provided either on-premises or in the cloud. On-premises secure remote access software is installed on the company's organization's computer infrastructure. In the cloud, secure remote access software is hosted in a vendor's data center.
If you want to connect securely to a cloud-based network such as Amazon Web Services, Dropbox, or Google Docs, but the connection only supports IPsec, you will not be able to successfully make the connection. You cannot access that service because the service itself does not support IPsec connections. You must use PPTP. Even then, if you have IPsec tunnel authentication configured, you will not be able to successfully make the connection. You can only access PPTP services.
If you would like to connect to a network using only IPsec authentication, you need to use Virtual Private Network (VPN) software. Virtual Private Networks do not authenticate their users because they work by encrypting traffic. If you want to access a service that supports IPsec, but not VPN, you will be able to access the service if it is available via Remote Desktop Services (RDS).
Why isn't the service working on my Mac? SoftEther's RDS service is only available on Windows operating systems and can be accessed through a Microsoft console or a remote access client. There is no RDS service available on Mac OS X, so you cannot connect to it using an RDS client. You can attempt to configure a Remote Desktop Session Host, but if you do so, you will only get a blank window. We do not recommend that you try to configure a Remote Desktop Session Host on your Mac. If you insist, at your own risk.
You can access RDS on macOS through VNC.
