route53_auto-update

Automatically update a route53 entry at init.

To make these scripts work for you you need to make a few edits:

• First, Add your Hosted_Zone ID in dyndns_route53.py
• Then enter the domain name that you want kept up-to-date

I highly suggest storing dyndns_route53.py in S3 or somewhere where your instance can easily download it.

• Edit user-data to point at the location of dyndns_route53.py

• The contents of this file go in the user-data field when spinning up an instance or setting up an auto-scaling rule.

If you are going to be using the IAM role I provided you need to edit it to point at the correct hosted-zone

I will likely expand this role in a future update to grant permissions to the python script in S3. Right now I have that script set as public.
