Description of problem: After updating to ddclient-3.8.0-2.el5 ddclient complains of progam version mismatch. Furthermore it updated my dyndns-accounts unnecessary every now and then (seems to me like 5-minute-intervalls) leading to a ban from dyndns. This version is not supported by dyndns.org anyways, 3.7.3 is described here http://www.dyndns.com/support/clients/ as the currently supported version. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ddclient-3.8.0-2.el5 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum update ddclient (from previous version) 2. experience the /var/log/messages entries and frequent updates 3. get the ban-mail from dyndns.org Actual results: Jun 30 21:32:31 rr010 ddclient[3852]: WARNING: file /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache, line 1: program version mismatch; ignoring /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache Jun 30 21:32:32 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating repo-itsslomma.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:32:32 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating sixnationstate.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:32:32 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating englisch-in-friedrichshagen.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:32:32 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating itsslomma.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:02 rr010 ddclient[7087]: WARNING: file /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache, line 1: program version mismatch; ignoring /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache Jun 30 21:37:02 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating repo-itsslomma.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:02 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating sixnationstate.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:03 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating itsslomma.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:03 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating englisch-in-friedrichshagen.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:32 rr010 ddclient[3852]: WARNING: file /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache, line 1: program version mismatch; ignoring /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache Jun 30 21:37:33 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating repo-itsslomma.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:33 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating sixnationstate.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:33 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating englisch-in-friedrichshagen.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:37:33 rr010 ddclient[3852]: FAILED: updating itsslomma.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:42:03 rr010 ddclient[7087]: WARNING: file /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache, line 1: program version mismatch; ignoring /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache Jun 30 21:42:03 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating repo-itsslomma.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:42:03 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating sixnationstate.dyndns.org: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:42:04 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating itsslomma.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:42:04 rr010 ddclient[7087]: FAILED: updating englisch-in-friedrichshagen.de: abuse: The hostname specified is blocked for abuse; fill in the form at http://support.dyndns.org/abuse.php to be unblocked Jun 30 21:42:33 rr010 ddclient[3852]: WARNING: file /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache, line 1: program version mismatch; ignoring /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache Expected results: ddclient should work as before the update Additional info: No restart done up to now.

To late, i deleted it. It is now: ## ddclient-3.8.0 ## last updated at Wed Jun 30 22:07:51 2010 (1277928471) atime=1277928471,backupmx=0,custom=0,host=xxx.de,ip=,mtime=0,mx=,static=0,status=abuse,warned-min-error-interval=0,warned-min-interval=0,wildcard=1,wtime=0 xxx.de atime=1277928471,backupmx=0,custom=0,host=xxx.de,ip=,mtime=0,mx=,static=0,status=abuse,warned-min-error-interval=0,warned-min-interval=0,wildcard=1,wtime=0 xxx.de atime=1277928471,backupmx=0,custom=0,host=xxx.dyndns.org,ip=88.73.9.75,mtime=1277928471,mx=,static=0,status=good,warned-min-error-interval=0,warned-min-interval=0,wildcard=1,wtime=0 xxx.dyndns.org atime=1277928170,backupmx=0,custom=0,host=xxx.dyndns.org,ip=88.73.9.75,mtime=1277928170,mx=,static=0,status=good,warned-min-error-interval=0,warned-min-interval=0,wildcard=1,wtime=30 xxx.dyndns.org Before rm-ing it there stood ddclient-3.7.x (the previous release) I was able to unlock my dyndns.org-defined dns-records but failed for my strato-ones as the do not appear there. Let us see if the update works.
What does "getenforce" tell?
# getenforce Disabled Was disabled due to conflicts back in the days i was working with the libvirt-/kvm-sources.
If i do a start the ddclient is started, afterwards i got 2 ddclients [root@rr010 ppsesieve]# /etc/init.d/ddclient stop ddclient beenden: [FEHLGESCHLAGEN] [root@rr010 ppsesieve]# /etc/init.d/ddclient start ddclient starten: [ OK ] [root@rr010 ppsesieve]# ps -ef|grep ddclient ddclient 13118 1 0 22:02 ? 00:00:00 ddclient - sleeping for 160 seconds ddclient 13530 1 0 22:25 ? 00:00:00 ddclient - sleeping for 300 seconds root 13542 6909 0 22:25 pts/0 00:00:00 grep ddclient [root@rr010 ppsesieve]# /etc/init.d/ddclient stop ddclient beenden: [FEHLGESCHLAGEN] [root@rr010 ppsesieve]# ps -ef|grep ddclient ddclient 13118 1 0 22:02 ? 00:00:00 ddclient - sleeping for 160 seconds ddclient 13530 1 0 22:25 ? 00:00:00 ddclient - sleeping for 300 seconds root 13551 6909 0 22:25 pts/0 00:00:00 grep ddclient [root@rr010 ppsesieve]# pkill -9 ddclient
