I have recently updated my WRT54G v 2.0 with from Tomato to DD-WRT v24 sp2 mini as I needed to use the repeater bridge function. The problem I have is that I can not make the DDNS update my records at dnsmadeeasy.com.
It was working perfectly with Tomato and I have read and configured many different ways and I can get an "update successful" message but the records are not updated.
Replace 'USERNAME' with your username, and replace the DNSRECORDS variable with the records you want to update. The records are space separated, and each field of the record is specified by: the name of the record being updated, the record's ID as provided by dnsmadeeasy, and then the password for that record (or account if you dont have per-record passwords).
The if your password contains a ':', you can change the delimeter to something else (the IFS var). Also if your password contains a $ or special html characters, you'll want to encode them. So if your password were 'abc&def', you would enter it as 'abc%26def'.
No you cant, custom doesnt work with dnsmadeeasy. There are 3 problems with it
1) it doesnt pass the IP as a parameter in the URL
2) it tries to use basic http authentication, which dnsmadeeasy doesnt support.
3) inadyn uses the http status code as the success indicator instead of the response content which is what dnsmadeeasy uses to indicate success/failure.
