configure doesn't recognize openssl about inadyn

[troglobit]

What's the output from the configure script, and do you have the libssl-dev package installed?

configure: error: *** Crypto library (OpenSSL) not found!

The configure script worked after I installed libssl-dev. I should have realized I would need the development version to compile.

[troglobit]

Ah, good to hear! :)

Maybe also give https://github.com/troglobit/inadyn/releases/tag/1.99.14 a try? I just released it 😃

[WhiteAbeLincoln]

I'm glad to hear about the Windows support. That's awesome! I actually started using ddclient in my linux installation, since nsupdate.info had a generated configuration file for me, and I couldn't get inadyn working.
I will definitely use this on my windows box

[troglobit]

Hmm, nsupdate.info should be quite simple to setup, they use the same protocol as DYN.com, simply have the following in your /etc/inadyn.conf

system [email protected]
    ssl
    username abe
    password lincoln
    alias abe.some.tld

Anyway, good luck! 🎩
