You will be able to install No-IP’s Dynamic Update Client on Raspberry Pi in just a few minutes using Terminal. Installing the service is simple to do, and requires little knowledge of Linux.
You will need to create a directory for the client software to be installed.
Open Terminal and type the following. After each entry press “Enter“.

cd /home/pi/noip |
After creating the folders for the DUC it is time to download the software.
Within the Terminal window type the following. After each entry you will press “Enter”.
wget https://www.noip.com/client/linux/noip-duc-linux.tar.gz |
tar vzxf noip-duc-linux.tar.gz |
Next navigate to the directory you created to locate the downloaded files.
cd noip-2.1.9-1 |
Now install the program.
sudo make |
sudo make install |
After typing “sudo make install” you will be prompted to login with your No-IP account username and password.
After logging into the DUC answer the questions to proceed. When asked how often you want the update to happen you must choose 5 or more. The interval is listed in minutes, if you choose 5 the update interval will be 5 minutes. If you choose 30 the interval will be 30 minutes.
sudo /usr/local/bin/noip2 |
To confirm that the service is working properly you can run the following command.
