DNS Issues

[GundamGuy]

I'm a pretty big noob when it comes to hosting my own server so this might be dumb...

The good news is that I got my server up and running and can log in if I use a client I diff'ed using 2018-06-20eRagexe.exe. I was able log in using my LAN IP address in clientinfo.xml (the sever is on my homelab in a virtual machine running Debian 10), I was also able to log in when using my Public IP address and Dynamic DNS address from DuckDNS.org.

The problem starts when I try to log in using a more recent Diff'ed client 2020-04-01bRagexe.exe

I can log in using my LAN IP address

I can log in using my Public IP address

I can't log in using my DynamicDNS address

Obviously I'm selecting the Enable DNS support patch in NEMO, but is there another patch or something that I need to configure to get newer clients to work... am I missing something here?

Conversely is there any benefit to using a newer client?

Ping your dynamic domain, if it resolves to your ip, also check your map/char configuration, it should have your dns entry.

Thanks for your help. I figured this out... totally newbie mistake I still had the map and char server ip's commented out so it was defaulting to my LAN IP.
