# DuckDNS VPS Routing Fix When routing `grajmedia.duckdns.org` through the VPS reverse proxy, the DuckDNS update script MUST target the VPS IP, not auto-detect the home server IP. ## Problem The DuckDNS update script at `/opt/duckdns/update.sh` used `&ip=` (empty, auto-detect), so DuckDNS recorded the home server's public IP (`162.81.173.34`) instead of the VPS IP (`51.81.84.34`). Traffic was bypassing the VPS entirely. ## Fix Hard-code the VPS IP in the update script: ```bash #!/bin/bash echo url="https://www.duckdns.org/update?domains=grajmedia&token=TOKEN&ip=51.81.84.34" | curl -k -s -o /opt/duckdns/duck.log -K - ``` Also check `/etc/hosts` for local overrides like `127.0.0.1 grajmedia.duckdns.org` (kept for local access to avoid hairpin NAT).
