CloudFlare DDNS - Update CloudFlare with Your Dynamic IP Address

In this video we'll take a look at how to setup a Docker container that will update Cloudflare any time the IP address from your internet service provider (ISP) changes.

I've modified the container a bit by removing subdomains and adding PUID and PGID, but that's it.

As the video shows, this process only takes a couple of minutes and will save a lot of headache if your IP address changes regularly.

Lightning round on setting up DDNS with Cloudflare. Literally had to pause and rewind several times you had so much information in such a short time. Well done!!

For someone who gets a new public ip everytime my router restarts i cannot thank you enough for this simple yet effective solution! :)

3-years and some change & it still works. 😎

I used the subdomain parameter in the docker stack/composer as I wanted to specify the subdomain with DDNS, not the root domain. Just wanted to mention that. Thanks for the video!

Excellent video! No unnecessary monologuing like some guides do.

Super handy, this is something that kept me from changing from an isp that provides static ip’s to one that doesn’t. Thanks!

Another great video and certainly the cleanest way to resolve a dynamic IP, keeping it all within Cloudflare. I'm achieving a similar result with Cloudflare by watching one of your other videos on installing Duck DNS on OMV. Then on Cloudflare's DNS, instead of entering an IP address, I just entered my Duck DNS address. Cloudflare then retrieves the dynamic IP address from the Duck DNS address.

Excellent video. Right to the point. I've been struggling to set exactly this until I found your video. Thanks!

Straight to the poin, no BS
I love this channel

[PanosGeorgiadis]

This is by far the best tip I saw. I will consider supporting your channel just for that. You really saved me a ton of money.

[OmarShaikh]

Thanks alot, your videos are really helping me learn alot of things !
Also, the PUI and PGID is not a requirement anymore !

[chinthakamayadunne]

Thanks! Was waiting for this since I started uisng CloudFlare for my domain management.

[sufianabdullah]

Works great! Thanks man for your videos, each video says am better than the other one.

[ErikUden]

Does this work for multiple subdomains and domains / zones too?

Edit: or should all other domains point to the one domain with the CNAME record like you showed?

[gswhite]

Brilliant overview, worked perfectly! Thanks so much

[justinsmall]

3:20 how are you getting the ZONE, PUID and PGID from please?

Very good and useful video David! Liked the content! I did and is up and running!

I encountered a weird issue... My Oznu updater picks the wrong WAN on my router, however under the same subnet everything is routed to a specific one and i do confirm that every other vm, container etc routed throu this one except the oznu ddns updater. Why on earth does the software picks the wrong connection? Can you help me out?

I recently tried this out but can't access internal web server. My setup is an UbuntuVM running a cloudflare-ddns script, UbuntuVM running NPM, and UbuntuVM running Apache. I setup a proxy in NPM to point to my Apache VM using an SSL cert, I tried both HTTP/HTTPS schemes and ports 80/443. Any assistance is appreciated.
