Dynamic DNS: pfSense, OPNSense, Docker, Bash



Dynamic DNS ensures that your DNS record automatically matches your IP after it changes. In this video I show how to configure it …

  1. This video showed up at just the right time for me, just right after I finished your video about Headscale 🙂 My ISP changes my IP once a week. Since I want to delve into a homelab setup, I plan to host some services on my local, dedicated setup. This will be helpful alongside implementing CloudFlare to help protect some traffic. I've found your videos to be very educational and presented in a way that gets you form A to B to C in a very organized way. Great job and thanks for your work!

  2. Great video, but I found a couple minor issues with the documentation that I thought I'd mention.

    First the link to your docker compose github page is broken. The link has a hyphen, while the github page doesn't. It was very easy to find the actual page once I looked at the full list of your documentation (which is all great). It took me several minutes to figure out the difference between the link and the page, so those hyphens can be sneaky. 🙂

    Second, the "config" file, actually needs to be a directory. Then, within that directory you need a "ddclient.conf" file that contain the configuration details from your config file.

    Thanks again and keep up the good work.

  3. Good video. I've been using dynamic DNS ever since I've started selfhosting. I use the linuxserver duckdns container and added my own dynu bash scripts (dynu is much more reliable than duckdns). Well it worked great as always, many public wifi has attempted to block dynamic DNS which pre-much cripples my entire homelab (can't even VPN b/c Wireguard uses ddns as I don't have staic IP). I've now switched to tailscale (require setup an exit node) and seems to restore my homelab.

  4. I currently use DuckDNS within pfSense. I assume going with Cloudflare would break any e-mail address forwarding configured within Cloudflare for the domain as the DNS records would point to your home IP instead of Cloudflare's?

  5. Thank you great video as always.

    A suggestion for a new video regarding OpnSense – there is a really good “caddy plugin” – basically a really easy to configure reverse proxy based on caddy all running in the opnsense gui
