I know, this is not exactly the good forums ... But I think maybe some user here know the answer .... My 2wire modem don't have an option to change ip on dyndns server, like my older one. Can it be possible to use a client of the network, a linux machine, to update my ip information? The modem / router allow any port forward.

Thank you :)

Finaly I found the correct configuration for /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf :
Code:

daemon=300            # check every 300 seconds
syslog=yes            # log update msgs to syslog
mail=root            # mail all msgs to root
mail-failure=root         # mail failed update msgs to root
pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid      # record PID in file.
use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org/, web-skip='IP Address' # found after IP Address
login=default         # default login
password=default   # default password
server=members.dyndns.org,      \
protocol=dyndns2         \
your-static-host.dyndns.org


I have to use : use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org/, web-skip='IP Address' # found after IP Address

to be able to update my ip from a client of the local network, since my modem/router loan to my ISP doesn't have an option for this.

Thx :)
