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?
daemon=3600 syslog=no mail=root mail-failure=root pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid ssl=yes use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org/, web-skip='IP Address'
server=members.dyndns.org, \ protocol=dyndns2, \ login=username, \ password=password \ myhost.dyndns-free.com
server=freedns.afraid.org, \ protocol=freedns, \ login=username, \ password=password \ www.myhost.co.uk
As I recall, there is a test mode that the ddclient documentation recommends you run before making it a daemon. Just start it from command line as root. It creates a pid and another file that is needed. And turning off logging makes no sense at all, even in production. Check the readme /usr/share/doc/packages/ddclient/README Are you directly connected to the internet, or is there a router between you and it?
