Dewdman42 wrote: That being said, I also got an email from no-ip.com today saying that I have to manually click on a weblink once a month to keep the free account active. What a pain. I'm not sure why that is the case, could be that ddclient does not try to update it unless the ip changes, or something of that nature.
So two questions for everyone,
- Does anyone know how to make ddclient force an manual push to the provider once a month or so, in the case when the ip has not changed?
- Does anyone know which FREE provider does not have this annoying manual requirement once a month?
Same here. I've tried numerous different settings with DDClient on the Netgear NAS but it never works.

NO-IP - Why is my host not updating or why is it pending deletion?

Has your IP address changed recently at all?

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
I'm looking to move away from the no-ip DUC running on Windows so I don't have to leave that machine running when I'm traveleing. Thought ddclient was the answer till I found this. I found this information in a non-ReadyNAS blog that might help:
Haven't tried it because I've not installed ddclient. Thought somone who has previously tried and failed could see if this is the solution.
Use 'server=dynupdate.no-ip.com/nic/update' instead 🙂

Thanks. I've been using that one for a while, but I guess I will get the expiration notice anyway.

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
Ok DynDNS.org seems to update correctly, though we still might need a work around for the 30 days thing.
But No-IP is much harder.
This might be useful for the 30 days limitations workaround:
http://www.dyncommunity.com/questions/9 ... pdate.html
And here is something for No-IP:
http://www.astaro.org/gateway-products/ ... s-tab.html
But No-IP is much harder.
This might be useful for the 30 days limitations workaround:
ddclient checks /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache against the ip it get from http://checkip.dynsdns.org. If the ip address is the same, it won't update even though your http://yourhost.dyndns.org resolves to a different ip address.

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
I have confirmed that the following configuration template works (at least for the first update) with DDClient 3.8.1 x86:
EDIT: See later message, this turned out not to work fully.
Don't know how to confirm whether SSL is being used for the update.
Have also found a couple of non-fatal bugs, posted in a separate thread.

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
Thanks Sandshark!
If you like to use a secure address, why not use:
Now, my DDclient settings looks like this. The DynDNS.org settings works, yes without skip=, but it's probably more correct to have skip=.
But I am not sure if I am doing this right with two services.
Note: I've seen that some of the older setups for No-IP uses protocol=dyndns2.

Didn't think that was the way to do it since none of the example templates I found included the http:// or https:// in the server= directive. I thought the ssl=yes told it to use https instead of http. But if it seems to work for you, I'll try it. Better to have the belt and suspenders in this case.

I don't have the skip= either. Haven't found any good explanation as to what it does and all seems to be working without it. But I only have one service to update, too.
I'm still waiting for the second update, as my IP address has not yet changed. I used DDclient to only update a currently unused redirect and kept the Windows No-IP DUC for the others until I see that the updates are occuring as they should as my IP address changes.

You might be very right. I referred to a help page at No-IP that mostly talked about the "The HTTP Request" method. I will remove the https:// from my server settings. And for DynDNS.org http://dyn.com/support/clients/linux/ddclient/ they state that they support ssl=yes.
Actually DynDNS.org has alwasy worked for me, no matter how the settings are written. I think that DynDNS.org are more service minded and forgiving. I guess they have to be that, being so big, they just can't handle to much user support. It seems like they in the receiving end has done a lot of program adjustments to fix user made syntax faults. Like the skip= thing, they know that very many users uses their IP-check and that they from the beginning had that stupid leading text "Current IP Address: " and that many probably will not use skip. So they take care of that, almost like well made web forms that remove leading and trailing spaces etc.
But No-IP is a totally different game. It seems like the settings gotta be perfect, in order to work.
I also wait for my next IP update. Infact both my services points to the same server 🙂 I just wanted to have redundancy. But No-IP has given me much more work than expected.
Here are most of the settings explained in a good way:
https://calomel.org/dyndns_org.html
If the mess continuous with No-IP, then I will try some other like opendns.com.

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
Well I got a new expiration warning from No-IP. The fact that most dynamic addresses given by ISPs last longer than 30 days is a problem. This is discussed earlier in the thread. Is there some easy work around for this?
Your domain was last updated on 2012-11-12 11:52:16. Free Dynamic DNS
hosts must be updated by logging into your account on our website and clicking
update, this must be done every 30 days. If you are using the Dynamic Update
Client and your IP address has not changed within the past 30 days, you must
manually update it to prevent them from being removed from our system.

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
No-IP has been a mess from the start. So now I'm a happy non user.
Here is a good blog post about alternative dynamic DNS services:
http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/gener ... lternative
But DynDNS.org still works fine for me. If you have an old working DynDNS account, keep updating it.

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
for DynDNS users that kept active their account (or new members using the basic free service offered by Dlink here : https://www.dlinkddns.com/login ; which is in fact operated by DynDNS), here is a page where to you can make an automatic settings file and it's working !! (you just have to change ###password### for you real password ... simple but i made the mistake lol).
https://account.dyn.com/entrance/?return=%2Ftools%2Fclientconfig.html
EDIT : you just have to check that the 'lines' are correct in their \ (and the carriage return) ; because the automatic config file obtained can have few mistakes (that's why i didn't pay attention on changing password). Just rearrange it, it's easy.

Thanks!
But today I got this from dyn.com (former DynDNS.org):
If you would like to maintain your free Dyn account, you must log into your account once a month. Note that using an update client will no longer suffice for this monthly login. You will still continue to get email alerts every 30 days if your email address is current. Failure to login once per month will result in expiration and loss of your hostname.
They are forcing their active users to become paying customers. In other words dyn.com is dying.

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
For anyone who is sill looking to use DDClient with No-IP, I found that the configuration above doesn't work quite right. It doesn't retrieve your IP address correctly. It seemed to work for me initially, because it already had the right IP address. This is one that works:
Note that this does not have all the backslashes at the ends of the lines. They were part of the problem.
You can also debug whether it is working if you have SSH access, using the following command string:
## no-ip single host update
daemon=600
ssl=yes
use=web, web=ip1.dynupdate.no-ip.com/
protocol=noip,
server=dynupdate.no-ip.com,
login='my_email'
password='my_password'
my_domain.no-ip.org
Note that this does not have all the backslashes at the ends of the lines. They were part of the problem.
You can also debug whether it is working if you have SSH access, using the following command string:
sudo ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -verbose -noquiet

Hiya. I'd like to know where I can find the ddclient add-on for R4 x86. It's not on the new rnasxtra's site, the old site is dead, and WhoCares' own site doesn't work. Can anyone help me?

You could try to get APT going and SSH into the machine.
Or try out ddclients rival inadyn.
apt-get install ddclient

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work
Ok, so in order to get the add-on, I should apt-get it myself? As that would get the package, but not the add-on. And I'd need to learn how to SSH into my NAS. And get APT going. I'm sorry, I don't mean to be ungrateful for the advice, but it's not very good advice 😞

That procedure will install the real thing not the add-on. If I can learn how to manage this, then anybody can. 😉

Re: DDClient - by WhoCares - I hope this one will work

Your current sources.list file contains a line that begins with a "#" character. Removing the "#" character from that line is probably all you need to do.

You should already have vi. Try this:
vi /etc/apt/sources.list
To exit vi without saving changes you've made, hit ESC and then type :q! -- more vi instructions are here: http://www.lagmonster.org/docs/vi.html
Once you've changed your sources.list file, do another apt-get update, then try apt-get install ddclient again.
Afterward, you can install nano by typing apt-get install nano ... But learning at least the basics of vi is worthwhile because it'll be available on every Unix you encounter.

Yes you should already have vi. And as you noticed in the link. Press "i" to get to edit mode and esc to get out of it. Press "ZZ" to exit and save. And be aware that vi is case sensitive.
