Description of problem: ddclient does not start as a service Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version : 3.8.0 Release : 4.fc15 How reproducible: Always (reproduced before and after fresh reinstall). Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install ddclient 2. set up /etc/ddclient.conf 3. service ddclient start Actual results: Hosts are not updated. No ddclient in ps ax at all. [root@localhost ~]# service ddclient status ddclient.service - LSB: Client to update dynamic DNS host entries Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/ddclient) Active: active (exited) since Sat, 04 Jun 2011 04:03:59 +0400; 40min ago Process: 1214 ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/init.d/ddclient start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/ddclient.service Expected results: Hosts are updated. ddclient in ps ax like "ddclient - sleeping for 600 seconds". Additional info: chkconfig ddclient on and shutdown -r now does not work. direct invocation of ddclient from cmd line works. [root@localhost ~]# ddclient [root@localhost ~]# ps ax | grep ddclient 4033 pts/3 S 0:00 ddclient - sleeping for 600 seconds 4039 pts/3 R+ 0:00 grep --color=auto ddclient [root@localhost ~]#

I have the same problem. System does not run NetworkManager. network starts on reboot. ddclient does not start on reboot. ddclient-3.8.0-8.fc15.noarch Version : 3.8.0 Release : 8.fc15
I have this problem too. Same everything
I have the same problem. ddclient-3.8.0-4.fc15.noarch
Here is a definition for a systemd service that you could use instead on the old init file: [Unit] Description=ddclient Client to update dynamic DNS host entries After=syslog.target network.target [Service] Type=forking User=ddclient EnvironmentFile=/etc/sysconfig/ddclient ExecStart=/usr/sbin/ddclient
ddclient has been converted to systemd in current release. It still doesn't work, but that's a different issue which should be a separate bug report.
