What's New

You can now enable DNSSEC on any custom domain from its page. DNSSEC cryptographically signs your DNS answers so resolvers can verify they have not been tampered with in transit. Turning it on signs the zone on our side and shows you the DS record to add at your registrar to complete activation. To move or remove a signed domain safely, disable DNSSEC first — remove the DS at your registrar and wait for it to expire — so the domain never ends up signed with a broken chain of trust.

Uptime monitoring is no longer limited to dynamic hosts: any A or AAAA record on a domain hosted with us can now be probed, alongside your free hostnames and DYNAMIC records. You can also pick a check frequency per host. The free plan includes 5 monitored hosts with hourly checks; more hosts and checks as often as every 5 minutes are part of the paid plan.

A new Fleet section lets you monitor your dynamic DNS hosts with active TCP probing — configurable port, 5-minute check interval, and email alerts when a host goes down or recovers. Each host shows a 24-probe sparkline so you can spot patterns at a glance. Free accounts can monitor up to 4 hosts.

A new guided wizard helps you set up SPF and DMARC records for your domain. It auto-detects your email provider from existing MX records (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Fastmail, One.com, IONOS, Hetzner, and more), pre-selects the right SPF includes, and generates correct TXT records with explanations at each step.

Common questions about dynamic hostnames, account access, and custom domains are now answered at kyedns.com/faq. Covers router DDNS setup, the dyndns.dk migration, IPv6 dual-stack, magic link login, and more.

Each account now has a personal API token (visible on your profile). Use it to read your zones, custom domains, and DNS records via a simple JSON API — handy for scripting and integrations.

Revived the 2011 dyndns.dk WEBJUMP feature for free *.dyndns.dk hostnames. Set a URL like https://kyedns.com/go/yourhost.dyndns.dk as your browser homepage: every time the browser opens, your IP is updated and you're sent on to the destination you pick (e.g. google.com). No client to install, no router config, no scheduled tasks. Configure the redirect destination on the hostname page under Settings. The bookmark URL has no tokens — auth uses the 30-day sign-in session, so you'll re-authenticate roughly once a month. Useful if your router has no DDNS support and you just want something that works.

Dynamic hostname updates now propagate to public resolvers within one TTL instead of waiting up to an hour for the scheduled sync. When your IP changes, the zone serial is bumped immediately.

You can now configure up to two mail servers (MX records) for your dyndns.dk hostnames. Set them in hostname settings — they sync to DNS automatically.
