Dynamic DNS feature request: extra parameters

[invar]

TrueNAS Core 12.0-U3.1

I set up a custom dynamic DNS provider. The IP is updated via a simple URL. The issue is that the response it gives isn't recognized by inadyn as valid so inadyn repeatedly attempts to update it.

I went into the /usr/local/etc/inadyn.conf and added:

Code:

ddns-response = ""

Restarted the inadyn service from the CLI and now it works.

Problem is that configuration will undoubtedly get overwritten if I restart the server.

An extra option to add "extra parameters" like some of the other Services offer that would directly be carried into the configuration would be great. Or a suggestion on how to get the setting to persist.

Thank you.

As a workaround I created a startup script that copies over the modified inadyn.conf from off a mounted dataset. Better than nothing I suppose.

These start-up scripts are great for handling these types of cases where only a few users need something to be customized.
If other people want the same thing, they should respond here or enter a "suggestion" within jira.
If there are too few users, then its difficult to justify adding UI and API complexity and then testing the feature on each release.
