DDCLIENT v3.6.7
|
||||
# DDCLIENT v3.8.0
|
||||
|
||||
ddclient is a Perl client used to update dynamic DNS entries for accounts
|
||||
on many dynamic DNS services.
|
||||
|
||||
IMPORTANT: The format and options used by ddclient have CHANGED.
|
||||
Please examine the sample configuration file.
|
||||
It is highly recommended that you take advantage of the
|
||||
new daemon mode of operation.
|
||||
|
||||
IMPORTANT: The installation location for the ddclient script has changed from
|
||||
/root/bin/
|
||||
to
|
||||
/usr/sbin/

|
||||
TROUBLESHOOTING:
|
||||
|
||||
1. enable debugging and verbose messages.
|
||||
$ ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -verbose -noquiet
|
||||
``$ ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -verbose -noquiet``
|
||||
|
||||
2. Do you need to specify a proxy?
|
||||
If so, just add a
|
||||
proxy=your.isp.proxy
|
||||
``proxy=your.isp.proxy``
|
||||
to the ddclient.conf file.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Define the IP address of your router with fw=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in
|
||||
/etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf and then try
|
||||
$ ddclient -daemon=0 -query
|
||||
3. Define the IP address of your router with ``fw=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx`` in
|
||||
``/etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf`` and then try
|
||||
``$ ddclient -daemon=0 -query``
|
||||
to see if the router status web page can be understood.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Need support for another router/firewall?
|
||||
Define the router status page yourself with:
|
||||
fw=url-to-your-router's-status-page
|
||||
fw-skip=any-string-preceding-your-IP-address
|
||||
``fw=url-to-your-router``'s-status-page
|
||||
``fw-skip=any-string-preceding-your-IP-address``
|
||||
|
||||
ddclient does something like this to provide builtin support for
|
||||
common routers.
|
||||
For example, the Linksys routers could have been added with:
|
||||
|
||||
fw=192.168.1.1/Status.htm
|
||||
fw-skip=WAN.*?IP Address
|
||||
fw-skip=WAN.*?IP Address
