Re: [Ddclient-support] something hosed up

[Anonymous W. V. <an...@ri...>]

OK, 'ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -verbose -noquiet' returns nothing but
[ ok ] Usage: /etc/init.d/ddclient {start|stop|restart|force-reload}
When I add start to the mix it returns nothing. Here's my
/etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf:

daemon=60                               # check every 60 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.
ssl=yes                                 # use ssl-support.  Works with
                                        # ssl-library
use=web, web=myip.dnsdynamic.com        # get ip from server.
server=www.dnsdynamic.org               # default server
login=****@******.net                    # default login
password=*****                       # default password
server=www.dnsdynamic.org,              \
protocol=dyndns2                        \
*****.dnsapi.info

I checked the server listed in a browser and it returns my IP correctly.
btw, I'm using http://mxtoolbox.com/DnsLookup.aspx to test this.
Appreciate any ideas!
