Non-US dynamic DNS


Hi all! I'm setting up a home server (Slackware ARM) on a raspberry pi. However, I have a dynamic IP address from my ISP, so I need to use a dynamic DNS service.
I have looked at many ddns providers and most of them seem to be located in the USA. I was hoping to use a non-USA service, but have had quite some difficulty finding any. Additionally, it would be nice if the service were a) free, and b) required limited information to register.
So far, this is my very short list of non-American providers:
http://www.dyns.cx/
http://cms.selfhost.de/
http://www.dynaccess.de/
https://dyndns.dk/
My problem with the German services is that they usually require payment and even if they don't you have to submit a full registration with identifying details and documentation.
Has anyone got any other providers they would suggest?
Many thanks!

Thumbs up

Hello Tom,

Not sure if this issue is still o/s so I will answer it anyway. I use these boys for DNS hosting: freedns.afraid.org for my domain and have never had any issues. I use it for Web / Mail & FTP services. It requires a minimal setup, is free and they provide free dns clients that can be run by cron to update your dns records if your WAN address changes.

Regards,

Rawcous

You can try smdns.indivia.net which is based in Italy.
Not completely sure the accounts are still free.
