Hello,
I’m trying with a RB951G-2HnD at home and I’d need a simple VPN access, eg PPTP.
For this, I need some dynDNS, I’ve registered a new account at no-ip.org. After that,
I downloaded (copied) a script from
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Dynamic_DNS_Update_Script_for_No-IP_DNS
and of course it didn’t work (didn’t register external IP of ‘pppoe-out1’ at no-ip)
I see the script should make log entries even if it succeded or not. However I can’t
see any log entries in Winbox’s Log menu after script running. It’ll be hard to find
the cause without log.
Anybody can help with this?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Please upgrade to latest version and you should be able to use our own DinamicDNS :IP Cloud http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/Cloud
Hi,
thank you. I’ll try this new feature after an update.
However, what can I do if I want to use the ‘no-ip’ DynDNS service (for any useful feature of it)?
What can be the problem, why it doesn’t make and even doesn’t log anything? Of course, I updated
the account info (user/pass/domain/nicname) in the original script, I installed it in the scheduler and
I even executed it manually (at the script window) many times.
Thank you in advance.
OK I tried it and works well.
However, the ‘original’ solution with the script also worked finally. The cause of the problem was trivial: the scripter engine
doesn’t like some special characters, for example the ‘$’ sign (which was in the password). OK, it’s a control character, but it
should accept if it is in a string constant, inside in quotation marks. It doesn’t like insomuch, if there’s a ‘$’ sign, the scripter
even forget to make log entries. You can prettify but I think it’s a bug.
