General DNS & Domains Dyn Email Update Clients Dyn Developer

Hi,

I´m a little bit confused. Years ago, I created an account at http://dyndns.org and used the domain http://MYNAME.kicks-ass.net since then. I almost never had to login or edit anything in my router so I don´t remember anything :-) Now I have new hardware and need to configure everything new. I cannot login to you website and I don´t receive an email for the username "marqus" which I think was may old account name :-)

When I check the site as if I were new in this, I can´t find the http://kicks-ass.net ending. Does it have sth to do with that? Does it take very long to receive the password retrieval mail?

thanks for any help, Markus

By the way, I remember a really old game named bugbomber. Must have been back in the C64 days, I believe.

Determine which e-mail address you had registered with DynDNS and request a password reset. If you don't have access to the registered e-mail address, the account ownership can't effectively be proven and your account is likely lost.

Does your old hostname still resolve?

The http://kicks-ass.net domain has been withdrawn from the free service for new hostname registrations (existing hostnames are unaffected by that change). You now need the DynDNS Pro service to use http://kicks-ass.net and many of the other old domains.

and in the "oh crap" category, I didn't have my modem set to "refresh" my account here, and since I have a static DSL I've had to manually refresh my account when the e-mail came in. It seems I missed it this month, and "whoops", I can't have my http://homelinux.net address anymore...

grumble

time to look for another free dyndns service
