Route53 Dynamic DNS Client

This is a simple DDNS client for Route 53.

Prerequisites:

• AWS Account
• Hosted Zone on the AWS account
• IAM user with programmatic access to modify the hosted zone
• Note: aws cli is not strictly required

Information Required:

You will need 4 pieces of information:

• AWS IAM Access Key ID
• AWS IAM Secret Key
• The Zone ID you are updating
• The desired FQDN e.g. test.test.tld

Installation

• Extract and place route53ddns.exe and conf.toml side by side in a directory
• Run route53ddns.exe --configure
• Give it the information referenced in the information required section.

Running

• Simply run route53ddns.exe

Scheduled Tasking:

This is pretty easy to do:

• Create a task in Windows Task Scheduler to whatever schedule you want
• For action; configure to start a program pointed at the exe
• Under the action properties, insert the full path including the trailing \ where the conf.toml lives.
