I have Debian server and have installed Ddclient! It updates IP address when I restart the Ddclient but when I restart the router and my IP changes but the Ddclient does not updates the IP.!
View 2 RepliesI find a ddclient user entry in my /etc/passwd. Is this normal or have I been compromised?
View 2 Replies View Relatedim having some trouble with my ddclient configuration. i followed the guide from [URL] and everything seems to be in order however it doesnt work. ive been emailing support at [URL] however they have yet to offer me a viable solution. perhaps someone here may know what my problem is. below is the results of the command: sudo ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -verbose -noquiet below that is my .conf

I've started using OpenDNS on my network, the problem is, my router gets an dynamic IP, which means I have to regularly update the OpenDNS settings.
DDClient apparently supports OpenDNS, but the Ubuntu package for it asks for various details I don't know, and can't find. I'd rather not have to boot up a Windows computer just for this.
So I've got two questions, I guess - first is, are any of the Windows clients known to work under Wine (that can retrieve the IP from the router and forward it), and the second being, how exactly do you set up DDClient to use OpenDNS?
I got Ubuntu 10.10 installed. Unfortunately, my wireless doesnt work. I'm connected to my router, but web pages wont load.
I thought to myself, maybe Ubuntu needs to update. So I lugged my computer out to the router itself and okugged my computer in. I went into update manager and let it do its thing. It was PAINFULLY slow. I had a less than 100 b/s. But I let it do its thing. After all 200 Mb's were done, which took a couple hours, I rebooted my system. Now, I cant even connect to my wireless and the internet symbol (the wireless bars thing in the top right) is gone.
1) How can I get my wireless to work?
2) How do I get the wireless button back?
In the past I've used ddclient to update my zoneedit dynamic dns. Unfortunately, this seems to be broken at the moment. I've submitted a separate thread related to that problem.
What other alternatives are there to ddclient? I'm particularly interested in something that works with zoneedit.com. I'm aware of:
inadyn
inadyn-mt
Inadyn is available in ubuntu. So far I have not gotten it to work but I have not tried too hard yet either.
When I run ddclient with an existing ddclient.cache file I get errors saying "uninitialized value" and the remote IP address does not get updated. This pretty much renders ddclient useless. If I delete the cache file then things work fine and the IP address *does* get updated (if need be). I happen to be running version 3.7.3 of ddclient but I've tried this with ddclient 3.8.0 and the result is exactly the same except that the line number in the error changes to line 2030.
Here's the code at that line number :
Code:
if ($config{$host}{'login'} eq '') {
warning("null login name specified for host %s.", $host);
I'm running ubuntu ( 9.04 I think ) and using zoneedit.com for dynamic dns.
Here's a transcript showing the problem.

I just installed a series of Ubuntu 9.10 updates, and after rebooting the machine, I can no longer connect via ethernet / lan to the internet. The connection manager just shows the spinning graphic showing the adapter is attempting to connect to the internet. I don't know which update caused it, and I'm not very good with linux. I was using network manager, and I believe that package was uploaded! Help, what should I do now? My Ubunutu is completely useless without a connection to the internet.

I have created a yum repository in my local network. Everything seems to be working well except the yum server doesn't remember what was updated, every time I run yum on it the same fies are updated (306 files). And the versions I checked are the same as the files already installed.

how can i setup ddclient at startup i already configured the client all i need is to let it start on bootup
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have installed ddclient for use with dyndns.org.
I can manually run it from the prompt with /etc/rc.d/init.d/ddclient start
and can verify that it works by checking that my IP has succesfully been changed at dyndns.
When I reboot though, during the startup, I get the following:
Starting ddclient: /bin/bash: ddclient: command not found [FAILED]
I am very new to Linux, so I am not sure what or where I should be looking to solve the problem. It seems to me that it must be looking in the wrong spot for ddclient, but I don't know what to check or change to point it at the right place.
I just installed Steam on my Linux machine tonite, following this guide [URL] ....
When I try to get the client going, it just connects to my account, checks for updates, verifyies data, and then starts over. It will keep doing that until I end the program, and never opens so I have access to my games.
I don't know if it is useful or not, but here is a picture I took of terminal I ran steam from (I don't know how to do a screen capture in linux).
Installed version are:openSuse 11.2KDE 4.4.4After installing some upates does my firefox will not starts anymore. And I have no idea why. It's seems not really a problem with firefox itself, because some other programs can't be started as well. Such as eclipse or Googles ChromeIt's appears only for few secounds the program in the task bar, and disappears then. Is there some log file or something like this, there I could see what happens in the start procedure of the firefox program

I ran Update Manager and installed updates. Now flash video and other things with flash content wont work.
To give one example. I go to a web I use frequently and the following message is displayed at the top: "Additional plug-ins are required to display media on this page"
I click on "install mising plug-ins" and select Flash Player-installer. Bu then it tells me it's already installed! This has only happened since last night when I installed the updates!
I can see that in yum-updatesd configuration i can use smtp_server to rely mail notifications as per below outputs from man pages smtp_server SMTP server to use when sending mail, host or a hostort string. Defaults to localhost:25. The problem that this option doesn't work at all and it rely into the local MTA not the one set on the smtp_server

When i open an audio file, it goes foreward with steps like 5 secondos and i can't listen nothing. Videos i can see, but with no audio, and ..... videos go at like 2x speed (and also here no audio).

i installed ddclient before installing apache. the 10.0.0.10 address is the server address in my d link router behind NAT.
Not sure but has support and updates for 11.2 come to an end? Every monday morning i make sure i'm upto date with updates etc. This am i get a message saying "repo not available" and having looked online to see if the directory openSUSE_11.2 exists, it doesn't.
At the same time loged in as a std user i regularily offer the command kdesu kwite. the command is accepted without error and the cursur returns on a new line as expected but kwrite doesn't start. I'm guessing that my last update has left me with a broken OS. It doesn't seem very long at all since i installed 11.2!
Update manager pops up telling me there are new updates, but clicking on the 'Install Updates' button does nothing.However, if I click on Settings, then just close the settings dialog,it then says 'Starting Update Manager' and when that finished, the 'Install Updates' will work, but I have to do this every time I restart the computer.

I have 3 Dell Precision M4400 machines. After getting updates yesterday or today, I get random network dropouts like crazy, on wired or wireless. On one machine I was able to turn off ipv6 in grub and reboot, and it works now. However on the other 2 machines, still have the same problems. All 3 are running 9.10 64 bit. Is there a way I can back out the updates so the network works again? Anyone else see this behavior after updates today?
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor some reason Update Manager is not installing updates as of yesterday.I have it set to check daily and notify if updates are available. It has been working without issues for well over a year now.
Update Manager tells me updates are available and presents the list of security, recommended, and other updates. All are selected to update, but when I select Install Updates in Update Manager it returns with a Reading Package Information window overlaid on the main Update Manager window - building dependency tree then reading state information and dumps me back to the main Update Manager window without performing any update actions.
