Mageia forum

I have a dynamically assigned IP address and a domain name at DynDNS that has to be updated. I have used ddclient for this purpose the last 8 years without problems, until now. In Mageia 4, ddclient cannot be started as a service any longer. Does it work for anyone else?

Any error message or any more details WHY it cannot be started as service any longer?

Nevermind, I solved it myself. The problem was that /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf was readable only to root. This was not a problem in Mageia 3 but obviously in Mageia 4.

Leif, will you be so kind, marking the topic accordingly?

You cam do so by editing the subject/title in the first message of this topic.
Write [SOLVED] left of it, and you're done.

Thanks in advance!!!
