jWalker Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Hey, i am hosting a minecraft server for me and a friend. He is more often playing there than me because i have to go to work and so My router reconnects at midnight... so he gets a new IP... Now i decided to write a server client program that tells him the new IP - if i am not @ home... My first idea was making like a program that connects to several generated IPs and if it connects and gets a "secret" string - Then it would be the server... But that would like need the same time than he must wait for me to tell him So is there any possibility to get this faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexmack Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 You can use Dynamic DNS service such as "No-IP". I think it's easier than writing a program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jWalker Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 Hmm then i will have to take a look if my router supports this If not- any other possibilities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDod Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 #include <Inet.au3> $PublicIP = _GetIP() MsgBox(0, "IP Address", "Your IP Address is: " & $PublicIP) Time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time ......T.S.

jWalker Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 Thanks but i know this I think you misunderstood my question! I want a client program on another PC that finds out MY home IP adress (BTW - i joined NO-IP.com ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenobiologist Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) You can only use 2 ways. A) Create a static name for your dynamic IP by using dyndns or something like that or The serevr needs to tell the client that the IP has changed. There is no chance for the client to search for the server.
