Microsoft is providing free subdomains and dynamic DNS under the homeserver.com domain for WHS users, and HP partnered with TZO.com to provide vanity domains. But I already have my own domains and I am perfectly happy with my free DynDNS account.
So I thought I’d whip up my own domain name provider plug-in. Struggled for a while with VB.NET but once I switched to C# my installer worked on the first try.
The next logical step would be to make it update DynDNS but it turns out there’s no documented API for doing that. I’ve dug around the system and run .NET Reflector on a bunch of HP/TZO DLLs but I can’t figure out how they’re doing it. Bummer.
