Hello.

Just wondering is there a specific ssh command that i can force an update of the DDNS client through SSH?

I can connect to a relatives router (RTAC86U) via SSH, but can't access the GUI, this is with DoT enabled too. Seems to work for a few days then the GUI is inaccessible, remote Gui is enabled, running Skynet firewall with secure access disabled.

Anyone help?
 
Code:
service restart_ddns
 
@muffintastic, if I'm understanding correctly, allowing SSH over WAN is not recommended. A major security risk.
 
RMerlin once gave tips how to use SSH over WAN in a relatively safe way:

Dropbear ain't bad security-wise. Just make sure you move SSH to a non-standard port to avoid your router getting flooded with connection attempts, and use key-based authentication.

Thanks for this. It’s exactly what I do (as a fall-back should there be problems with both OpenVPN servers and to try and stay familiar with SSH). It’s reassuring to know Merlin’s views on it, though.
