NO-IP and NO-IP2

First Debian.Org have updated no-ip (due to I believe security issues) to noip2.
Second Excito do not support noip2 so that it is not available in elvin.

The Excito wiki How to install a NO-IP Client needs modifying to reflect the situation.
First thing is to add the source.
In my case I used nano to update the sources list

1. change user to root
2 nano  /etc/apt/sources.list

Add in the Debian distribution

3. deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian lenny main

The ftp site should be changed to reflect the local mirror site. I believe main could be replaced with a more limited case to only get network or noip itself but I do not know currently how to do that.

After editing the sources file and saving it tell the package manager to update it

4.apt-get update

Then install noip2

5. apt-get install noip2

Then configure the account information as per how to.

For a server the interface is I believe eth1 for wan use eth0

Check configuration

6. noip2 -S
