similar to: Problem updating ddclient

I'm running ddclient on a remote CentOS server (with dynamic IP address). About twice a day I get email from ddclient saying "TIMEOUT: checkip.dyndns.org after 120 seconds". As far as I can see, ddclient checks the IP address every 10 minutes. So can I assume that ddclient got the address the next time it tried? I looked at the Perl source, but couldn't really disentangle it.

Hi all, I use logcheck and ddclient, and I think that it would be usefull to add an ignore pattern for ddclient: ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ ddclient[[0-9]+]: SUCCESS: updating [._[:alnum:]-]+: good: IP address set to [.#[:digit:]]+ The original messages are like this: Jan 18 10:26:40 casaserv ddclient[4397]: SUCCESS: updating myserver.mine.nu: good: IP address set to 12.345.67.89

I find ddclient stops running after a time on a remote CentOS-6.4 server. Has anyone else found this? I think it has been happening for a couple of months. I notice because I get complaining messages in my logwatch. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

Is anyone running ddclient under the CentOS-7? It doesn't seem to be in epel. I've downloaded the source and it is running, but giving me endless warnings. Could I run it as a daemon? I'm not sure if this is allowed nowadays. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

I have a CentOS-6.2 server in Italy. Every few months the server gets into a strange state and stops working after a power outage. I should say that this does not occur after every power outage; I suspect, but have no real evidence for this, that if the power comes back too quickly then the machine gets confused because it is in the middle of closing down. If I am in Italy the solution is simple;

I'm running postfix + dovecot on my CentOS-7 home server.

Hello, Was trying to setup postfix on my home PC. Running Centos 6.4. I don't have a static IP and use zoneedit and ddclient to keep my installation of zoneminder current. So I decided I wanted to get zoneminder to send me email alerts. Sent some test messages but none were sent. I went to webdnstools website thinking maybe there is a dns or network problem. When it checks my dns setup,

Verizon has put another good third party DSL supplier out of the DSL business. Their mindset is to kill the competition and then kill DSL and copper althogether in FIOS areas. So am soon losing my static IP and I need to prepare for the change. I currently have Asterisk running using, besides local extensions, a remote SIP extension in another state. In the new configuration both Asterisk and

I am currently setting up a firewall that translates my internal network over to 5 public IP addresses. The addresses are dynamically assigned, so I use ddclient to update my www.dyndns.org account. I've set up several aliases on the external interface of the firewall, and succeeded in having the internal computers use those extra public IPs. What I want to do is have 5 copies of ddclient

I'm trying to install spamassassin on a postfix/dovecot server, running CentOS-6.4, following the instructions at <http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Amavisd>. I think I have taken all the steps indicated, and the configuration seems to pass the tests suggested, although the response is much more sparse than that described: ------------------------ [tim at alfred ~]$ telnet localhost 10024

Hello Everyone, Does anyone know where to grab RPMs for nut? Or, at the very least, a spec file that could be used to build a new one for CentOS 4? I'd much rather use apcupsd, but the UPS in question is only supported via nut.

Probably. The fact remains that booting was attractive, and now it isn't. --

I have a strange problem on a CentOS-5.8 machine. I can only login as root. If I try to login with one of the user's names, it hangs for a long time. I thought it hung forever, but I just found that I do login after "su tim" after 5 minutes.

I had to install 5.5 from scratch and now I have to rebuild my home networking system. I haven't had to mess with this stuff in over 5+ years and I'm sure there may be better ways of doing it now. My liunx box acts as firewall/gateway for 2 other pcs. I was using a script from the Linux IP Masquerade HOWTO with ddclient (since I have a dynamic ip). Also, I don't think I need a full

Has the CentOS logo disappeared from CentOS-7? I thought the logo in CentOS-6 was very pleasant. Also I liked the way in which one increasing circle inside another showed how the boot was progressing. The dots going round and round in Microsoft fashion in CentOS-7 is a retrograde step, I think. One always has the fear it might continue forever. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School
