Linux client
We offer our Linux client for automatic account updates as a free
download; this runs on Linux and UNIX-based systems.
Compared to the Perl script, this version is lean, doesn't need a configuration file and
doesn't offer a graphical interface.
Installation
You can obtain a detailed document from the download archive.
Configuration check
If you have carried out an account update, you should definitely check this. Via
http://myaccount.dynaccess.com
you can check your current account configuration (LOG).
Firewall configuration
You have to adapt your firewall if you have configured special rules for outgoing connections.
You have to allow DynAccessPoster a free outgoing connection according to the following overview.
| Windows client |
Linux/Perl-client |
setIP (account update) |
TCP 900 | TCP 905 |
myIP (request the current dyn. IP) |
TCP 901 | TCP 906 |
HeartBeat |
UDP 910 | UDP 910 |
No configuration is necessary for incoming connections.
If present, correspondingly adapt the intruder detection.
Due to the short intervals and the fact that the client always sends the same information, your firewall
might block this. In the log
http://myaccount.dynaccess.com, you can
recognise intruder-detection defense if you see many account neutralisations.
Final note
It is not meaningful to start this update program (DynAccessPoster) more than once in your LAN. The
DynAccess clients and their specifications are adapted to the DynAccess servers.
Multiple account updates from different programs have more negative than positive effects, especially
when using the HeartBeat.
