Hi
For some unknown reason ddclient doesn't refresh my IP.... It works normally if I do it manually... anyone have any idea why this is happening? Everything used to work fine so the config must be O.K. I got the refresh set to 120 sec...
Regards
Spector

This is a clean new install... it worked great on my previous system with the same ddclient config

Try RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING="yes" in /etc/conf.d/rc
It's probably the same issue as with ntp - trying to access the Internet, before the Internet connection is up and ready. |

Not it isn't - even if I start it manually it doesn't update the account..
I'm searching for a better alternative.. |

Log into dyndns and check that your account is still active.
Then, put the following into /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf, replacing yourlogin and yourpassword, and change the interface to your Internet-facing connection, e.g. eth0:
| Code: | # http://ddclient.sourceforge.net/
pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid
protocol=dyndns2
use=if, if=ppp0
server=members.dyndns.org
login=yourlogin
password=yourpassword
yourlogin.dyndns.org |
Edit: There's debugging info at the bottom of the ddclient homepage. |

I've been having the same problem. After a couple days, dyndns stops working. But I don't think the culprit is ddcilent, because if I log into my account with dyndns and check my services, it has the corrrect IP address there. If I update it manually from the website, the IP address stays the same but now I am able to ftp to my server etc.
It seems to be a dyndns issue. |

to
and it works with no problems. |
