We have recently updated the account requirements to access parts of our production Domains API. As part of this update, access to these APIs are now limited:

– Availability API: Limited to accounts with 50 or more domains
– Management and DNS APIs: Limited to accounts with 10 or more domains and/or an active Discount Domain Club plan.

I advise those using it to move your business elsewhere or at least move to another DNS provider.

“Public IP matches Cached IP recorded. No update required!”

change the CachedIP from

“/tmp/current_ip”

to

“/tmp/current_ip_subdomain”

and change subdomain as needed.

Most ISP will change the IP almost every time when reconnecting hence it’s recommended to lower the TTL and cron frequency for such cases. Even for my case, where my IP stays for many months despite reconnecting, I still lower down the values because if an IP change should occur, it will take too long for DNS servers to propagate it thus extending my server unreachable down time further.

For me, I have an unlimited 1Gbps symmetrical connection. I also seldom check the logs as I rely mostly on email notifications so most of my logs are either disabled or limited to only warning level and above. So in an event if I do receive an email about my IP changes, I would expect all my apps incoming connection via DDNS to be up within 10 minutes or less. But if metered connection is also a concern, feel free to adjust the values accordingly.
