Hi there, This might be a little bit newbie, not sure. I want to keep an eye on my ip address off my adsl line, as it changes I would like a scirpt to run, basically uploading to a hosted out website. Currently I use a cron job every 15 mins that checks if the current ip is the same as the last in /var/log/syslog, if not then and only then upload it. I do not run any mail services, I do however run apache live for webpages only. It is on a text only machine, Mandrake9.1, P1 100mhz, that doubles as my gateway for small lan at home. If anyone has pointers, please share.
I dont really want to run dyndns just yet, but if this turns out to be the best solution, then so be it, I will. Oh, I am more a user, and not so good at bash & scripting, so if there isnt an easy way, dont worry, I'll go the dyndns route. Best regards Steve Cox
