I'd love to get DNS-O-Matic working. But my log keeps saying the following when it checks every 5mins....Tue Apr 19 20:25:01 GMT 2011 : Return message of DNS-O-Matic :
It's picked up my correct IP address and the cached IP address is blank.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I share this problem and would appreciate some hints.
Setup:
ReadyNAS NVX, RAIDiator 4.2.19
DNS-O-Matic 1.5
I performed the following actions
Install add-on
Disable add-on
Terminal (I am on OSX Lion) and SSH to ReadyNAS
cd /c/addons-scripts/DnsOMatic/
vi dnsomatic
inserted my username and password inside ""
saved
sh /c/addons-scripts/DnsOMatic/dnsomatic <NO output or error, when executing the script.>
tail -f /var/log/DNS-O-Matic.log
(I am aware, that experts will have a much more elegant approach, but not me...)
LOG-file (extract)
Mon Oct 3 02:25:01 HKT 2011 : found: <my current IP with the ISP> cached IP:<empty>
Mon Oct 3 02:25:01 HKT 2011 : Return message of DNS-O-Matic :
Online, DNS-O-Matic website says "Waiting for first update"
As my current ISP-IP is different from the one recorded @ DnyDNS, something should actually happen (according to my understanding)
I also tried
chmod ug+x dnsomatic
without any improvements.
Many thanks for your help!
Stefan
