Description : Script to Freenom.com Domain Renewal and update Dynamic DNS
This shell script makes sure your Freenom domains don't expire by auto
renewing them. It's original functionality of updating an A record with
the clients ip address is also retained.
You'll need to have already registered an account at Freenom.com with at
least one (free) domain added, before you can run the script.
To update A record or Renew domains, see Usage or type "freenom -h".
Settings can be changed in the script itself or set in a separate config
file (default). Every setting has comments with possible options and examples.
First edit config and set your email and password which you use to
sign-in to freenom.com
Optionally you can schedule the script to run automatically. The installer
creates "/etc/cron.d/freenom" or systemd timers in 'system mode' so the
script runs at certain intervals.
Please also include as much relevant information as possible.
For example, consider answering the following questions:
- why is this package useful/relevant? is it a dependency for
another package? do you use it? if there are other packages
providing similar functionality, how does it compare?
- how do you plan to maintain it? inside a packaging team
(check list at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams)? are you
looking for co-maintainers? do you need a sponsor?
I have made the packaging available in my Salsa via the link:
