Even for a single server, it seems worthwhile. You can set up all your clients that need remote access using this service. For a consultant supporting numerous business, the $25 account for up to 30 domain names is a great deal.

Now you can distribute your new domain name to your FileMaker Pro users and they will be kept up to date without you having to do anything. This software runs invisibly in the background, so you won’t see it unless you actually run it, after the initial setup.įor details about setting up FileMaker Remote access, please see my other blog posting on the topic. You may want to click ‘refresh host list’ to see if everything is current. If you ever want to check that it is working, just launch DynDNS Updater and check on it. Once you log in and setup the account, the DynDNS Updater software runs in the background and keeps your FileMaker Server up to date.

Best of all, no more phone calls from FileMaker Pro users needing to know the new IP address for the Server….

If your ISP changes your IP address on you, the software will detect the change and update the remote domain name server. This light-weight software app runs in the background and keeps track of your router’s IP address.

Once you have the service setup and pointing at your FileMaker Server, you install a free client application called DynDNS Updater from Dyn.com on your FileMaker Server computer. Think of a domain name as a more memorable alias for the user-unfriendly number scheme (IP Addresses) that the Internet is built on. They would instead use something like this:įmnet:/ /MyBigFatDatabase.fp7 What this will look like for your database users logging in remotely is, instead of entering an address like this with an IP address number in it:įmnet:/ 205.160.1.125/MyBigFatDatabase.fp7

Your Internet service provider (ISP) would rather upgrade you to a business package with a fixed IP address at an additional cost.įortunately, as with most things Internet-related, there is a workaround to this issue. For $25/year dyn.com will assign you a domain name for your server and help you keep the IP address up to date automatically. What is it now?”, instead of being productive. What that means to your users, is that periodically they will have to call you up and complain ‘They changed the IP address again. They will frequently change your network IP address to prevent you from hosting services. The reason you may need a service like this is because in many cases your Internet provider doesn’t want you to host services on your home or small business line. Their tagline is “ Access your device or files using a unique hostname, instead of a confusing (and ever-changing) IP address.” Once you have your FileMaker Server setup and accessible remotely, I recommend setting up Dyn.com Remote Access service.
