# Setting up Dynamic DNS (optional)
|
||
|
||
The playbook can configure Dynamic DNS with [ddclient](https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient) for you. It is a Perl client used to update dynamic DNS entries for accounts on Dynamic DNS Network Service Provider.
|
||
|
||
Most cloud providers / ISPs will charge you extra for a static IP address. If you're not hosting a highly reliable homeserver you can workaround this via dynamic DNS.
|
||
|
||
For details about configuring the [Ansible role for ddclient](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-ddclient), you can check them via:
|
||
- 🌐 [the role's documentation](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-ddclient/blob/main/docs/configuring-ddclient.md) online
|
||
- 📁 `roles/galaxy/ddclient/docs/configuring-ddclient.md` locally, if you have [fetched the Ansible roles](../installing.md)
|
||
|
||
## Prerequisite
|
||
|
||
You'll need to authenticate with your DNS provider somehow, in most cases this is simply a username and password but can differ from provider to provider. Please consult with your providers documentation and the upstream [ddclient documentation](https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient/blob/main/ddclient.conf.in) to determine what you'll need to provide to authenticate.
|
||
|
||
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
|
||
|
||
To enable dynamic DNS, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
ddclient_enabled: true
|
||
|
||
ddclient_domain_configurations:
|
||
- provider: example.net
|
||
protocol: dyndns2
|
||
username: YOUR_USERNAME_HERE
|
||
password: YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE
|
||
domain: "{{ matrix_domain }}"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Keep in mind that certain providers may require a different configuration of the `ddclient_domain_configurations` variable, for provider specific examples see the [upstream documentation](https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient/blob/main/ddclient.conf.in).
|
||
|
||
### Configuring the endpoint to obtain IP address (optional)
|
||
|
||
The playbook sets the default endpoint for obtaining the IP address to `https://cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace`. You can replace it by specifying yours to `ddclient_web` and `ddclient_web_skip` if necessary.
|
||
|
||
Refer to [this section](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-ddclient/blob/main/docs/configuring-ddclient.md#setting-the-endpoint-to-obtain-ip-address-optional) for more information.
|
||
|
||
### Extending the configuration
|
||
|
||
There are some additional things you may wish to configure about the component.
|
||
|
||
Take a look at:
|
||
|
||
- `roles/galaxy/ddclient/defaults/main.yml` for some variables that you can customize via your `vars.yml` file
|
||
|
||
## Installing
|
||
|
||
After configuring the playbook, run it with [playbook tags](playbook-tags.md) as below:
|
||
|
||
<!-- NOTE: let this conservative command run (instead of install-all) to make it clear that failure of the command means something is clearly broken. -->
|
||
```sh
|
||
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The shortcut commands with the [`just` program](just.md) are also available: `just install-all` or `just setup-all`
|
||
|
||
`just install-all` is useful for maintaining your setup quickly ([2x-5x faster](../CHANGELOG.md#2x-5x-performance-improvements-in-playbook-runtime) than `just setup-all`) when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your `vars.yml` to remove other components, you'd need to run `just setup-all`, or these components will still remain installed. Note these shortcuts run the `ensure-matrix-users-created` tag too.

## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
See [this section](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-ddclient/blob/main/docs/configuring-ddclient.md#troubleshooting) on the role's documentation for details.
