It's been... well, a really long time coming, but it's finally here! We've pushed a pretty substantial update -- actually, more of a total rewrite.
StaticCling has been in constant service since 2001, and it certainly started feeling like it was written around the turn of the century. This rewrite provides a (much needed) modernized backend that should scale upwards well, along with a full API to encourage rapid development of native clients.
All the basic features are still there, plus we've added:
- Subdomain support (you can have many records attached to one account)
- DNS load balancing
- Full NS delegation (if you run your own nameserver and want ultimate control)
Old clients that use the original login scheme will no longer
be supported.
Nearly everyone, unfortunately, is using the original, simplistic and insecure URL
format. For this transition, that format will continue to work
temporarily. Please update your client if you're using one on a timer
(cron or whatever.) We'll disable all the legacy stuff in the next
couple of months.
You can find a new command line client here. It will run on any system that can run Ruby.
Enjoy the new setup, and let me know how it works for you. Thanks for using StaticCling!
