Using VestCP with NO-IP Dynamic DNS

[Fatal1tybr]

Hi people,

I currently live in Brazil and built 4 ethereum mining rigs (Or 4 servers), the specifications are these:

G4400 Pentium Dual Core 3,30ghz
8gb ddr4 2400mhz
240gb ssd
100mb/s downstream
50mb/s upstream

The mining thing don`t use much bandwitch.
I had an idea to start hosting websites and start profting with adsense and etc... But I use a brodband conection with dynamic IP... I could change it but the ISP will charge me much more expensive rates so I was thinking if there was a way to use the NO-IP service with vestaCP because if there is not I won`t use all the potential that I have of hardware.

Can you guys help me?

It is not an easy thing to do whatsoever... you should have sound knowledge of how DNS works.

You have to first make an account and setup a domain name at Dyn DNS service like NoIP.
Then setup DDNS service in your Broadband Router (make sure you are not on a Double NAT'd ISP network).
Then Setup Port Forwarding on your router.

It is a complicated affair and not a good idea to run web servers on a dynamic home use IP.

I have same situation And after read other topic on this forum I just adapt the script created for other user.

1º create one file called oldip with your actual ip address.
2º create a file DynupdateVestaDns with this:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
if [ $(whoami) != 'root' ]; then
  echo "Must be root to run $0"
  exit 1;
fi
ip_old=`cat oldip` ### your oldip in file # first time is your actual ip
ip_new=`curl http://ipecho.net/plain`
declare -a user=$(v-list-sys-users plain)
for user in ${user[@]}; do
  sed -i "s/${ip_old}/${ip_new}/g" /usr/local/vesta/data/users/${user}/dns/*
  v-rebuild-dns-domains ${user}
done
echo $ip_new >oldip # update ip in oldip for next use
exit 0

3º just execute this script as cronjob (both files in same directory)

this update DNS for All Users.

You not only need think in nginx, also you need fix apache and nginx vhosts and orther files.

This can be easy whit a internal proxy maybe virtual server insite main server, one change ips and do a proxy pass to vestacp ( vestacp never change ips and you not need scripts, restars and orther things )

Just do a haproxy, varnish or nginx main server this will litesten to internet and vesta will just working in private ipadress.

Is a lite more complicated than that but you not need break your maind when vesta change something in vhost, dns etc all that changes will do main server.

rotating IPs on the server level is a stupid thought, whatever you think!

you need this to handled at the router level as @skamasle already mentioned. Your internet router should be pointing to your internal IP which remains static!! Please read my first post.
