DNS Updater

Experience Level: Advanced

DNS Updater allows the use of a vanity URL (e.g. yourchoice.com) to access the server remotely, rather than the default homeserver.com domain.

The add-in supports domains hosted by a variety of service providers, including:

  • DynDNS
  • NO-IP
  • ZoneEdit
  • DNS-O-Matic
  • Open DNS
  • TZO

You’ll need to set up an account with the service provider and register your domain before configuring DNS Updater with your account details.

Developer: Ten Atoms

    Hey, you removed my previous comments on this, here it goes again.

    $19.99 is a lot to ask for something can be done easily with other free tools, who in his/her right mind would buy this?

    • Terry Walsh

      Hey, no I didn't – but it looks like a few comments are missing here. Let me dig and fix.

  • graeme

    you can do this on a lot of routers for free. I agree with Tony, $20 is a rip.
