How to set up FQDN with Dynamic IP?

rated 0 times [ 1] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 7580 / 3 Years ago, tue, september 21, 2021, 1:06:19

Can I setup my www.example.com address when I have a dynamic external ip adress (no router) and if so whats needed to make it work?

The server is already installed with Ubuntu Server 12.04.3 and LAMP packages and works.
I would like to use a domain name instead of the ip address since it changes.

Use a DNS hosting service that provides dynamic DNS services, and follow their instructions to configure your server. You'll likely be instructed to install a program like ddclient.

Recommendations for DNS hosting services are beyond the scope of Ask Ubuntu.
