What is gandi-dyndns?

This tool allows people to update A records of their domains that are using the Gandi DNS servers. It's a way to provide a dynamic dns service.

Usage

git clone git://github.com/lembregtse/gandi-dyndns.git
cd gandi-dyndns
./gandi-dyndns --api=YOURAPIKEY --domain=YOURDOMAIN --record=YOURARECORD

This will update YOURARECORD.YOURDOMAIN to your public ip

You could automate this by adding a crontab entry like this

*/5 * * * * /location_to_your_git_repo/gandi-dyndns --api=YOURAPIKEY --domain=YOURDOMAIN --record=YOURARECORD

This will automatically update YOURARECORD.YOURDOMAIN to your public ip every 5 minutes

In respect to the site that is providing your public ip, please do not update more often than 5 minutes.
