DZMM Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) I have a simple problem that I can't find a solution for. I want to install a docker so that I can update godaddy with my IP address using a script from this post https://uk.godaddy.com/community/Managing-Domains/Dynamic-DNS-Updates/td-p/7862. It's a standard script starting #!bin/bash and it works, but I need to run it in a docker rather than using User Scripts plugin as unRAID is behind a VPN and I need to use one of the VLANs I've setup to send my real IP address to godaddy. I just need a docker that will run the script. Or, is there another way? e.g. I'm trying to get my head around cron jobs in pfsense Thanks in advance Edited November 28, 2017 by DZMM Quote Link to comment
ken-ji Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 There's a plugin call User Scripts. It'll help you manage script files on the flash drive along with scheduling on when to run them. This will let you do what you want without having to mess with dockers But the script on pfsense is probably the real right way to do it. Quote Link to comment

I cant use the plugin as unraid is behind a VPN. I agree pfsense would be a good place, but I can't for the life of me get the cron tool to work so I'm trying the docker approach.

DZMM Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 I manged to get this working in pfSense. It doesn't run every min, but at least often enough so that goDaddy has the right IP address Quote Link to comment
