Comments and Reviews
Most of the current DNS services are offering Wildcard support on their PAID services. Duckdns.org has it available for free. Very easy to setup and install. Only one domain with wildcard supported. Seems to support only duckdns.org as domain for your subdomain registration.
Gives message "Requires Java Runtime Environment 1.0" However, it runs on the latest JRE 8u411. Confusing for a novice. See www.duckdns.org/install.jsp
Freedom from captcha. Free to use.
Easy to set up and easy to use, offers 5 subdomains on a single account "example.duckdns.org"
You can also use your own domain but you have to tweak it through your domain registrar, change nameservers to match duckdns.
100% free and super simple to get it runing on Windows and Linux (supports BSD as well)
10/10, life saver if you dont have a static IP :D
