Dyn Updater Description
DynDNS Updater is a perfect tool for DynDNS customers whose computers have a dynamic IP address. Since the IP changes periodically, users might encounter problems initiating remote sessions or connecting to FTP servers. Here is where DynDNS Updater comes in to offer them a helping hand.
What this application actually does is check a computer’s IP address and if differences are detected, it immediately sends the new IP to the hostname on the DynDNS server. Thereby, the IP address database in the DynDNS account will be constantly updated.
At first launch, the application prompts users to enter their dyndns account credentials. It then detects the current network IP address and grabs data regarding hosts from the account.
DynDNS Updater is set to run silently in the system tray, without interfering with the user’s work. However, it is advisable to take the time needed to configure its behavior before letting it do its job in the background.
Its main interface comprises details about the username and the computer’s IP address, as well as the date and time of the last update. It also displays a complete list of all the available hosts. With a single click you can change the DynDNS user, refresh the IP address, activate or disable the updater.
DynDNS Updater can keep the hostname up-to-date, allowing it to point to the current system and preventing remote connection problems that might occur due to situations when the IP address is incorrectly allocated.
