Would be interesting to see what it actually says about why it failed.

I view that IP address is not updated

I use script on /etc/rc.d/ddclient like the one for i386

if I run, I have:

ddclient -daemon=0-debug -verbose Use of uninitialized value in numeric lt (<) at /usr/sbin/ddclient line 1005.

the reason for this message is a missing space, try again with:

ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -verbose

Just what I wanted to say. Shit happens ;-).

You're behind some sort of router, right? The script can't find your ip-address, you need to configure the (use=...) section according to your hardware.

I try with

use=web, web=http://checkip.dyndns.org, web-skip='Current IP Address: '

or with

use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org

or only

use=web

same error, ip isnot updated

works for me with:

use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org/, web-skip='Current IP Address: '

I have standard configuration on my NETGEAR DG834G

may be there the problem

I think have updated and configured my router

I installed postfix, now I have:

RECEIVE: <html><head><title>Current IP Check</title></head><body>Current IP Address: 151.72.111.227</body></html> DEBUG: get_ip: using web, http://checkip.dyndns.org/ reports 151.72.111.227 Use of uninitialized value in string ne at /usr/sbin/ddclient line 1966.

I dont understand: means of: <nothing>

and what is: public/pickup

This seems to be a problem in your postfix configuration... you did configure it, right? At the very least, you'll want to: edit /etc/postfix/aliases # set alias of root to your username to get # admin mail postalias /etc/postfix/aliases # hash this table edit /etc/postfix/main.cf # edit a few things here: myhostname # shouldn't need to change this from the default # (unspecified, it uses the value set in /etc/rc.conf mydomain # again, shouldn't need to change this unless you # didn't set it in /etc/rc.conf. If your box isn't a # mail host online, then just ignor ethis entirely.. myorigin # you probably want to leave this as the default # $myhostname inetinterfaces = localhost # this makes your mail daemon not # listen on network interfaces for # new mail mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost # if you know why you need it, you can append other # things here. Otherwise, stick with those three. mynetworks_style = host # don't trust remote users, don't relay their mail. This # is probably redundant in light of inetinterfaces being # set to only bind to localhost, but paranoia is good.

Now, fire up postfix: /etc/rc.d/postfix start

Use sendmail to make sure mail sent to root ends up in your mail spool:

$ sendmail -t # enter what comes below to: root from: <youruser> subject: testing alias map

Test ^D $

And check that it ends up in the local mailspool. If you use a gui client to read email, any decent one should be able to add a local mailspool. It'll be called "unix mail" or something like that. The spool is at /var/mail/$user

Now you have mail delivery set up on your local machine.

Now, as for ddclient... it is, in my opinion, crap. Use updatedd. I've attached a package build. Edit the configuration of your service in /usr/etc/updatedd-wrapper.conf, and then put updatedd-wrapper in a cron job. Do, as root:

# crontab -e

and then insert this line: */10 * * * * /usr/bin/updatedd-wrapper which runs the updatedd-wrapper script every ten minutes.
