Hostname name conflict prevention

April 03, 2026
Improvement

When creating a new free dyndns.dk hostname, the system now checks for conflicts with existing DNS records (like mail or www). This prevents accidental duplicates that could break email delivery or web access for the dyndns.dk domain.

KyedNS has a new look. Clean landing page, new fonts (Satoshi for headings, DM Sans for text, JetBrains Mono for technical data), and a restrained color palette that puts your data first. Touch-friendly buttons for mobile users.
