Hi, i am completely new to both SF and ddclient.
I think its a great script. 

I am using ddclient with my Fedora6  Lamp
and i ran into some trouble.

upon cold starting the server everything is fine.
I can access my site (btw i am using zoneedit)
but when my lamp gets disconnected from the internet
my ddclient doesn't update for me
 when i check the process status it said 

# /sbin/service ddclient status
ddclient is dead but pid file exists

my config file is as follows in /etc/ddclient

daemon=100                              # check every 100 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=2wire                    fw=192.168.1.254:80        # via 2wire router

  server=dynamic.zoneedit.com,          \
  protocol=zoneedit1,                   \
  login=xxxxxx,               \
  password=xxxxxx      \
  xxxxxxx.com



I have to manualy delete the pid file in /var/run/ everytime my ip changes
and manually start the service

please advise.
i am willing to be a test client on zoneedit if there is none yet, its
an honor.

Thankyou :)
