Summary: [solved] ddclient not starting on boot
Initial Comment:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3235737.html#3235737
What I had to do to get ddclient to start on boot:
rc-update add ddclient default
Code:
touch /etc/ddclient/ddclient.cache
chmod 660 /etc/ddclient/ddclient.cache
chmod 640 /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf
chmod 750 /etc/ddclient
chown -R root:ddclient /etc/ddclient
The goal here is to get it readable by root and
ddclient (group) only. ddclient.cache needs the +w for
group bit set.
Reboot, and watch.
For debugging the /etc/init.d/ddclient script:
Code:
change:
start-stop-daemon --start --chuid ddclient --quiet
--exec /usr/sbin/ddclient 2&>/dev/null
to:
start-stop-daemon --start --chuid ddclient --quiet
--exec /usr/sbin/ddclient #2&>/dev/null
(so you can see error messages)
/usr/portage/net-dns/ddclient/ddclient-3.6.6.ebuild
should be updated to include the above steps, notable
the ddclient.cache needs to be writable by group
(ddclient), otherwise it will fail on boot.
