checking on ddclient, working or not?
    #7814837 - 12/30/07 07:05 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

i am trying to setup ddclient to work with namecheap.com dynamic dns service

i was getting this error in /var/log/daemon.log every time ddclient tried to run.

Code:
Dec 30 17:50:25 helium ddclient[4721]: WARNING:  file /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache, line 3: Invalid Value for keyword 'ip' = ''
Dec 30 17:50:25 helium ddclient[4721]: WARNING: skipping update of www.mydomain.com from <nothing> to 11.123.11.123.
Dec 30 17:50:25 helium ddclient[4721]: WARNING: last updated <never> but last attempt on Sun Dec 30 17:50:12 2007 failed.
Dec 30 17:50:25 helium ddclient[4721]: WARNING: Wait at least 5 minutes between update attempts.




i couldn't find anything on google about the "invalid value for keyword ip"
so i went in /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache and set the value to my external ip

it says its running
# /etc/init.d/ddclient status
Status of Dynamic DNS service update utility: ddclient is running.

and i don't see any errors in daemon.log or syslog

now i figure that ddclient is working, or i really pissed it off.

does anyone know of a way to check if this is actualy working?
namecheap doesn't give me any way to check this.

im probably missing something

TROUBLESHOOTING:

  1. enable debugging and verbose messages.
        $ ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -verbose -noquiet
