Dynamic DNS and website mirroring
Okay, a quick post before I go to bed.
I've successfully set up this URL redirection. I've also opened an account with DynDNS.org for dynamic DNS.
So far, I've done two things: set up dynamic DNS to point to my home server, then URL redirection to cloak that server name.
I've also set up apps on the WinXP and FC1 partitions to dynamically update the IP pointed to by DynDNS since I'm on dynamic IP on my DSL connection.
My problem now is that I have two servers -- one on the Windows XP partition and the other on the Fedora Core 1 -- and I have to mirror their contents for consistency.
Interesting problem. One approach I can think of is to dump the MySQL databases on each, then do the updates on whichever partition is currently active. I can make a script on Linux there; and probably an autoexec.bat entry on WinXP.
For now, I'm going to sleep.
