Namecheap DDNS Module for Synology NAS 7.1

Installation Steps

  1. Create the file at /sbin/namecheapddns.sh and make it executable (chmod 0755 /sbin/namecheapddns.sh)

    (Why under /sbin? Merely following the guide described in /etc.defaults/ddns_provider.conf, but you can put it anywhere you want and make it 0755.)

  2. Append the following content to /etc.defaults/ddns_provider.conf:

    [Namecheap]
            modulepath=/sbin/namecheapddns.sh
            queryurl=https://namecheap.com
            website=https://namecheap.com
