setting up inadyn on VU

[danped]

I'm using DCC and following this guide:

How install and configure inadyn

Installation and configuration of inadyn on VTI and VIX images for being able to use service no-ip:
1) Download enigma2-plugin-extensions-inadyn.vuplus_1.2-r0_mipsel.ipk.
2) Copy it with ftp on the receiver in the /tmp folder
3) connect to the receiver in telnet and type the following command: ipkg install /tmp/enigma2-plugin-extensions-inadyn.vuplus_1.2-r0_mipsel.ipk
4) Modify in the receiver the file inadyn.conf in /var/etc in the following way:
--background
--update_period_sec 060 (indicate time interval with which it comes controlled if the ip address is changed)
--username (yours login of the service)
--password (yours password of the service)
--dyndns_system [email protected]
--alias (the address that you have set up to your host, es.: mioweb.no-ip.com)
--forced_update_period 86400
--log_file /var/log/inadyn.log (set up this for the log file)
5) Modify the /usr/bin/enigma2.sh and before the line:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libopen.so.0.0 /usr/bin/enigma2
add:
inadyn
6) reboot the receiver. If all it has been executed correctly, read the /var/log/inadyn.log in order to verify the correct run of the system.

But I'm having problems.

Firstly in step 2 I don't seem to have a tmp folder on my VU box. I couldn't create one either. I managed to create one called "Dan", but couldn't make one called tmp...

Then I managed to run it and install, but I can't understand step 4, what do I have to type in the telnet command prompt?

Sorry to copy the instructions instead of posting on the original thread but the orig thread is quite old now so I probablky wouldn't get a response.

Thanks.

TMP folder is inside the ROOT folder m8.
See pic attached.

Thanks - how about the telnet box - what should I type?

[dell_xps]

I use an Imac m8, my Vu shows up in my finder,
I can transfer files etc no problem.
Rubber duck will be able to tell you what you need to
telnet ok.

PS I have a root folder at /home/root

But it doesnt have atmp ffolder in it.

There isn't a /tmp either

I have no problem ftping files etc, how do you update your dynamic ip with dyndns or no-ip? (or do you not have one?)

[dell_xps]

Are you def running the Team Vix image on your box or Black Hole image m8?

[danped]

Yes - ViX-2.1-vuduo_usb.zip

It says Vix all over it on tv, it works fine too. Although I haven't got my motorised dish up yet I have hooked it up to my sky dish, loaded a bouquet and watched tv on it fine.

Have you tried a network cable from your pc to your vu duo ?
Probably need a crossover, try a normal patch cable first.
Not sure why your network is not picking it up :-(

update your box to VIX 2.2. we are working on a inbuilt indyn plugin for this version. although it's not some thing i use my self so i cant give any more details than that.

[danped]

Thanks - I'll give that a try and let you know how it goes. Do you use an alternative? I'm not wedded to using inadyn but I need something similar.

Is Dyndns plugin working on Vix 2.2?

This is the one under:

Blue/software management/manage extensions/system/Dyndns client ?

Just want to know if it updates as I am moving my server from a DM800 to a Duo in the morning.
