Today the No-IP Mac OS X Dynamic Update client (DUC) version 3.1.1 was added to Apple’s download repository. You can find our client in their downloads section under “Networking and Security” or directly by following this link. With our service becoming ever more popular among Mac users, there is no better way to get the word out about our service.

New Third Party Update Clients
No-IP.com would like to announce two new third party update clients that support our services. For the Unix and Linux crowd, RunDNS is a versatile client that runs on just about every flavor of Unix. For the Windows users, Rcon Software has developed myDynIPPro version 2.8.5 to support No-IP.com’s services and can be found at this link.
Keep in mind due to the number of third party update clients, No-IP does not provide support for third party update clients and software.

German Spam a la Sober.q
Like many of you this weekend I woke up to hundreds of German spam messages in my Junk mail box. This is due to a very fast spreading variant of the Sober worm (Sober.Q).
Check out this article over at Yahoo news:

If you are using the No-IP POP3 service. A spam hit level of about 7 seems to block out the majority of these. A lower number will insure that most of them reach your junk folder.
New Guide Added To The Site
Today we added a new guide to our Support section of our site. The new guide discusses using Microsoft’s Remote Desktop (RDP) application with No-IP.com’s services. We also re-vamped our Alternate Port SMTP setup guide for Microsoft Exchange. The changes to the Alternate Port SMTP guide address configuration changes when using the Small Business Server edition of Exchange. You can view both of the guides here.
We love to receive feedback from our users. If you have any suggestions for new guides that should be added to our knowledge base or have a contribution of your own drop us a line by commenting on this blog or opening a support trouble ticket.
