It is hard to maintain a regular internet uptime with home connections. 1/2 router re-connections per week can be fairly common. When that happens, the public IP changes with most ISPs. This can be annoying if you want access your computer remotely (possibly to SSH home). Dynamic DNS is a solution that exists to solve just that.
I maintain DNS entries for my domain at
Clouflare. The latest version of
ddclient supports Cloudflare
API, which works well with my ArchLinux box. But ddclient bundled with Raspbian,
is yet to get that update. Cloudflare’s API is fairly straight forward, so I
decided to use a curl/systemd based solution on my RaspberryPi.
