Steffo :steffo:Can somebody recommend a good dynamic DNS service that I can use to access some stuff of my Synology nas? Preferably self hosted, but if it's free and safe, I can also just use a different service.I primarily want to use my own domain (e.g. so I can use my yubikey for authentication).<a href="https://fellies.social/tags/synology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#synology</a> <a href="https://fellies.social/tags/dyndns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dyndns</a> <a href="https://fellies.social/tags/selfhostingadvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhostingadvice</a>

red_rooster :coolified:<a href="https://mastodon.social/@WinFuture" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@WinFuture</a> That what call "Cloud Account" is probably the myfritz-service. This is only needed if you have an IP-adress that changes from time to time. This usually the case for plain private internet conections. This service is the easy, lite and fritz-adopted version of <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/DynDNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNS</a> and serves the prupose to provide a constsant internet-adress to a changing IP-adress. There are various DynDNS-Providers with different Services. You could use such as well.

GossenJust a technical question. I am running a server at home with GoToSocial and Pixelfed. This is running super, only my internet connection has a dynamic IP address. Every day around the same time it changes. I notice that after this IP change it takes a while (10min) before GoToSocial and Pixelfed are available again. Can this hurt as far as federation is concerned? Or will other servers find my server stupid? <a href="https://toot.community/tags/Federation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Federation</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/DynDNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNS</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/GoToSocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GoToSocial</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/Pixelfed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pixelfed</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/TechnicalQuestion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TechnicalQuestion</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/IT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IT</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/Server" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Server</a>

GossenEven een technische vraag. Ik draai thuis een server met GoToSocial en Pixelfed. Dit draait super, alleen heeft mijn internetverbinding een dynamisch IP adres. Elke dag rond dezelfde tijd veranderd deze. Ik merk dat na deze IP wissel het even duurt (10min) voordat GoToSocial en Pixelfed weer beschikbaar zijn. Kan dit kwaad voor wat betreft federation? Of gaan andere servers mijn server stom vinden? <a href="https://toot.community/tags/Federation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Federation</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/DynDNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNS</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/GoToSocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GoToSocial</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/Pixelfed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pixelfed</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/TechnischeVraag" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TechnischeVraag</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/IT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IT</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/Server" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Server</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/DurfTeVragen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DurfTeVragen</a>

Marfey_BaraHabe heute endlich mein defektes <a href="https://mastodon.de/tags/DynDNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNS</a> repariert und ein eigenen VPN Server im <a href="https://mastodon.de/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a> eingerichtet. Voll produktiv. Als nächstes steht die Einrichtung eines reverse Proxys an.

greenwoodHallo in die Runde, ich habe eine Frage zu <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/ipv6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ipv6</a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/FritzBox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FritzBox</a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/dyndns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dyndns</a> und <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/wireguard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wireguard</a> So wie ich es verstanden habe, muss die öffentliche IPv6 Adresse des wireguard-Servers beim Dyndns-Anbieter hinterlegt sein, um auf das Gerät hinter der Fritzbox zugreifen zu können. Ist das vom Sicherheitsaspekt so, als wenn ich mit ipv4 auf die Fritzbox zugreifen und dort dann an den wireguard Server weiter geleitet wird? Wie bringe ich den wireguard Server dazu, seine IP beim Dyndns Server zu hinterlegen?

Tim W RESISTSThe next one, which also started surprisingly early, was using <a href="https://union.place/tags/DynDNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNS</a> hostnames for botnet command and control. That's what actually got me involved in the <a href="https://union.place/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#infosec</a> community (and where I met <a href="https://infosec.exchange/@jtk" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@jtk</a> !)DynDNS was good for C&C because they could move it around quickly, and have the bots follow. If the C&C got taken down, boom, switch to a new one. We were unintentionally helping them keep their control going.2/?

Yann Büchau :nixos:This was surprisingly painful, but I managed to make a :nixos: <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/NixOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NixOS</a> module¹ to periodically update DNS records via the <a href="https://netcup.cafe/@netcup" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@netcup</a> API. This means you can do <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/DynDNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNS</a> with your domain rented via <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/netcup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#netcup</a> 🥳Luckily, someone already made a script² to interface with the API.

Thomas SchäferService:Hin und wieder wird bei DYNDNS eine stabile Host-ID verlangt:Linux allgemein: man ip-token ip token set ::3000 dev eth0 oder im NetworkManager: <a href="https://networkmanager.pages.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/nm-settings-nmcli.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://networkmanager.pages.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/nm-settings-nmcli.html</a>[ipv6] addr-gen-mode=eui64 method=auto token=::3333Damit kommt man ohne DHCPv6 aus und die Hosts müssen nicht ihre MAC-Adresse "verraten".Wenn jemand die äquivalenten Einstellungen für andere OS oder Tools kennt, kann ja gern damit darauf antworten.<a href="https://ipv6.social/tags/ipv6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ipv6</a> <a href="https://ipv6.social/tags/slaac" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slaac</a> <a href="https://ipv6.social/tags/dyndns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dyndns</a> <a href="https://ipv6.social/tags/hostid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hostid</a> <a href="https://ipv6.social/tags/prefix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prefix</a>

Tim W RESISTSToday's <a href="https://union.place/tags/DynDNSHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNSHistory</a> is answering a question from <a href="https://oldbytes.space/@drscriptt" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@drscriptt</a> . <a href="https://union.place/tags/DynDNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DynDNS</a> accidentally created a quasi-standard with our DNS update "API". To this day, over 25 years later, dynamic DNS updates for many providers go to a URL of "/nic/update" - and that's our fault. Why this HTTP(S) mechanism instead of "real" UDP/53 DNS updates? RFC 2136 did come out in 1997, but it wasn't well-supported even in BIND (we eventually used it internally and found LOTS of bugs). 1/n

If I've ever cosidered paying - they've lost me.
