Connexion with Dynamic DNS = Connection error

[HeXiT78]

Hi,
I use the [nfsuclient.exe] v1.1.
When i use my server Dynamic DNS address in the [nfsuclient.exe] to add my server, i see my game server name and IP, but connection error in game. Everything is correct when i add my server by IP directly.
I imagine this bug can be frustrating for people using ADSL connection changing of IP at each connection.
I really love your work! Thank you very much!

@HeXiT78 What is "DNS address"? Local ip?
"IP directly" - real ip?

@HarpyWar How to add a domain (ex. myserver.com)? Server ip can change, and domain is stable.

I use Dynamic DNS from freedns.afraid.org

When my ip change, my Dynamic DNS is update by my router.
ex: hexit78.mooo.com -> My WAN address 24.200.84.4

the nfsu.conf don't accept dynamic IP so what you can do It's:

Make a backup copy of your actual nfsu.conf like nfsu_original.conf
Edit your nfsu.conf with all your custom settings but remove the line:
serverexternalip = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

That new edited file save it with the name nfsu.BKP
Delete nfsu.conf so you only will have nfsu.BKP

Then create a Batchfile with this code:

:: Restore the File without the line
copy nfsu.BKP nfsu.conf

:: Get the public IP and add it to the end of the file.
for /f "tokens=1,2 delims=[]" %%a IN ('ping -n 1 YOUR_ALIAS') DO (
 if "%%b" NEQ "" set ip=%%b
)
echo. >> nfsu.conf
echo.serverexternalip = !ip! >> nfsu.conf

:: Start the server
start "" nfsuserver.exe

Put in "YOUR_ALIAS" you dinamic DNS like myhouse.free.com
With that you resolve your dinamic IP to a number and add it into the file, and start the server.

Best Regards.
