PfSense 2.0.1 dynDNS for GratisDNS Service
-
If you, like I do, use GratisDNS (www.gratisdns.dk) to provide domain hosting and want to use their dynamic DNS service, I've written a little guide to get it set up and running with pfSense 2.0.1.
The following files should be modified, either through SSH or through the Diagnostic -> Edit file function:

You can create a ticcket with patchfiles, than it will be implemented in next release.
