Setting up a Dynamic DNS

This part is not really Banana Pi related, but is still required to access our Banana Pi from the Internet. There are several DDNS services available. We are going to use the yDNS.eu service as it is free and easy to use. However, you can use any DDNS service.

1. On your computer, browse to https://ydns.eu/.

2. Click on Sign up now.

3. Submit the upcoming form by entering your e-mail address, a desired password twice, and the requested captcha challenge.

4. After some minutes, you will receive an e-mail, including an activation link. Click on that activation link.

5. Click on Sign in.

6. Log in by entering your previously entered login details.

7. After you have logged in, click on Create Host.

8. Enter your desired hostname and select a domain. We will use bananapi.ydns.eu.

The following screenshot shows the procedure to create a host on yDNS. You will need to use a different hostname, as bananapi.ydns.eu is already taken.

9. Click on Create Host.

10. You will see a list of all your created hosts, which is currently only one.

11. Your DDNS domain is set up correctly. Now, you can log out by clicking on your e-mail address on the upper-right corner followed by signing out.

The account creation for your Dynamic DNS hostname is done.
