*** Bug 243539 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 243540 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This is simply not a package review. Let me try to fix up the mess. OK, that should be done. The maintainer is assigned, and co-maintainer and initialCC are CC'd. Sorry for all the bugspam. And to the initial submitter, if there's some piece of documentation or wiki page somewhere that pointed you to the Fedora Extras Package Review Request form as the proper way to submit a but report for a package, could you let us know where it is so that it can be fixed? Occasionally someone tries to report bugs that way but we've never been able to figure out where we've given the impression that it's the proper way to do that. Sorry I was not trying to spam your site, someone mentioned to use bugzilla.redhat.com, I'm a newbie with bugzilla. I wrote two extra entries, cause I thought it didn't go thru when I got this message: The product name '' is invalid or does not exist. Got frustrated with it so I left. Didn't realized it produced 3 bugzilla entries for me. Again, I'm sorry, was not trying to spam. I haven't used ddclient in a while, but when I did the update to 3.7.1, it worked fine for me on FC6 with dyndns. Attaching your configuration file here (with passwords and such masked/removed) could help. By the way, why did you choose to disable SSL? Created attachment 156671 [details]
My copy of ddclient.conf
Had to move the file to my home directory, chown/chmod so this Bugzilla can
grab it. I changed the login info per your request, this is the standard
ddclient.conf that came with ddclient 3.7.1.
I disabled ssl and enabled ssl, either way, doesn't work with Fedora 7. Update
your Fedora and try it.
I went to My Account at www.dyndns.org and changed the IP address off by one number to make it incorrect. Ran in root terminal: host kiriyamablevins.dyndns.org curl checkip.dyndns.org They don't match as expected then I ran: ddclient -query -force -verbos -noquiet host kiriyamablevins.dyndns.org curl checkip.dyndns.org Still don't match, this is Fedora 7. Fedora Core 6 worked with ddclient 3.6.6. I played around with ddclient.conf permission. It prefers to be: [root@kiriyamablevins etc]# ll ddcl* -rw------- 1 ddclient ddclient 5339 2007-06-10 12:06 ddclient.conf [root@kiriyamablevins etc]# service ddclient restart Stopping ddclient: [ OK ] Starting ddclient: [ OK ] [root@kiriyamablevins etc]# host kiriyamablevins.dyndns.org kiriyamablevins.dyndns.org has address 208.53.80.38 [root@kiriyamablevins etc]# curl checkip.dyndns.org <html><head><title>Current IP Check</title></head><body>Current IP Address: 208.53.80.39</body></html> [root@kiriyamablevins etc]# I get this alot, even with FC6, if it matters. From ddclient.org Tue Jun 12 18:47:05 2007 Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2007 18:44:06 -0700 From: Dynamic DNS Client <ddclient.org> To: root.org Subject: status report from ddclient.org X-Virus-Scanned: ClamAV version 0.90.2, clamav-milter version 0.90.2 on kiriyamablevins.dyndns.org X-Virus-Status: Clean WARNING: caught SIGTERM; exiting regards, ddclient.org (version 3.7.1) Do you receive those mails all the time/randomly, or only when the box where ddclient is running is being shut down? ISTR ddclient sends that on shutdown by default and there was a way to turn those off in the config file (which would probably be a good default in the package). Ok, that make sense. When kernels gets updated, I rebooted. Fedora are intended to be rebooted frequently, its closer to development than RHEL cycle. Did you try it with Fedora 7, duplicate the issue? Not yet, but I'll try to find time to look into it ASAP. Your ddclient.conf seems malformed, note that the options are comma separated, except there's no comma between the last foo=bar option and your hostname. So instead of this: server=members.dyndns.org, \ protocol=dyndns2 \ login=somelogin \ password=somepasswd \ wildcard=yes \ somesite.dyndns.org ...try this: server=members.dyndns.org, \ protocol=dyndns2, \ login=somelogin, \ password=somepasswd, \ wildcard=yes \ somesite.dyndns.org I just tried it on F7 with dyndns, works for me. Added commas as you requested.
Manually changed to 208.53.80.38 at www.dyndns.org
Doesn't work still.

[root@kiriyamablevins etc]#
rpm -V ddclient? Also note that you most likely shouldn't be running ddclient as root, that may screw permissions of the cache file. Just start the service using the init script and watch /var/log/messages. Oh, how nice, so we can't run ddclient in debug anymore cause you changed it
to ddclient group, hence, mess up with the cache file? Cache file is still
ddclient ownership.
NOTE:
Did I mentioned while back the whole thing works in 3.6.6 and that
ddclient.conf file didn't have commas as you requested then. Works like a
charm.
Anyway, try the step again, but use 'service ddclient restart' and wait
patiencely.
