Well the cross compile went suprisely smooth. I downloaded the uclibc cross compiler and had no problems whatsoever. I then placed the noip binary on the /var (which is writable) and was very proud to be able to runit off my router with the dilema if to actually integrate it into the router's initscript a thing that may break it if I make a mistake creating the rooydisk and so forth...
So after my first cross compile I felt very proud and had all of the air beat out of my lungs when I ran noip with out any paramaters and recieved this entry among others ... -F force NAT off hmm if there's a NAT off does that mean NAT is on by default? Having not even tried it on my natted machine I fell in to another classic case of overobfuscating a simple and trivial problem :) . noip also has the -S ip that farther displyas this point with the next output... #./noip2 -S -c noip.conf noip2 process active. Process 19345, started as /home/lior/devel/noip-2.1.1/noip2 -c noip.conf Using configuration from noip.conf Last IP Address set 85.64.20.237 Account [EMAIL PROTECTED] configured for: host liorsbox.no-ip.com Updating every 30 minutes via /dev/eth0 with NAT enabled. There goes another 2 wasted hours...
