Hi Chris, Chris Roubekas wrote:
Dear all,
I have a SuSE8.1 fully patched box which connects to the internet and received a dynamic IP from its ISP. In order to always be able to connect to this box whenever it is on line I have created an account in dyndns and have assigned the dynamic IP configuration as stated. Downloaded the client ddclinet from their site and configured as much as I could... However the system doesn't seem to update the IP through the configuration file. Can someone explain to me how this file is supposed to be setup or perhaps a different site that will do the same things for me but with much less work??
Thanks all! Chris
ddclient works fine on my side. Keep in mind that the proposed crontab syntax doesn't fit into SuSE (I guess it's more Debian-oriented), so you have to correct it. Maybe you could post your .conf file (modify login and passwd settings) for us to figure out what goes wrong... Martin
