Ok I have ddclient working now. It was a PICNIC lol My firewall on my proxy detected ddclient as a new program and blocked it from accessing the Internet. Paul Groves On 26 Aug 2013, at 19:37, "Werner Flamme" <werner.flamme@email.de> wrote:

Hi,
I have added the following to the very bottom of /etc/ddclient.conf and have not modified the file in any other way (with myhost being the hostnames, username being the usernames and password being the passwords).
The ddclient services starts but my IPs do not get updated. I have left it for over an hour, rebooted the service, left it for over an hour, rebooted the server and left it another hour with no ips getting updated at all. I have tried reinstalling ddclient and only setting up one host to update but it just does not do it at all. I log on to dyndns or freedns and the ip addresses are still different to my internet IP.
I installed ddclient using YaST but that shouldn't really matter.
Am I doing something wrong?
No, everything looks fine to me. The user root should get mails if there are errors. Did you check it?
ddclient is only a perl script, there is absolutely no need to reboot or anything like that. Do you start ddclient manually or did you run "insserv ddclient" to start it on boot? "rcddclient status" should show if it is running or not.
When you issue "grep ^[^#] /etc/ddclient.conf" as a command in the konsole, do you get any other text output than the lines you put at the bottom? This should not be, and they might contradict your lines, and ddclient will not run because of this.
