INADYN(5) File Formats Manual (smm) INADYN(5)

NAME

inadyn.conf — inadyn DDNS client configuration file

SYNOPSIS

/etc/inadyn.conf

DESCRIPTION

inadyn can read the very same command line options from a configuration file. This feature allows the user to write the options only once, and avoids frequent retyping.

The format of the file follows the UN*X tradition:

  • The “#” character denotes a comment.
  • Long options (those with “--” in front) can also be placed at the beginning of the line without “--” signs.
  • The \ character can be used as an escape character.

EXAMPLES

1. Config file with long options

# Some comments about the inadyn conf file
--username test
--password test
--period 60
--alias test.homeip.net
--alias my.second.domain

2. Config file without “--”

username test # user
password test
period 60 # some other param without '--'
alias test.homeip.net
