Title: Update Based Reboot not Working - ddclient hangs!
Post by: knebb on September 03, 2026, 12:49:39 PM
Hi,

I noticed the following behaviour now twice:
Update is set to "automatically" including reboot


root@router:~ # ps ax| grep 43968
43968  -  Is       0:02.34 ddclient - sleeping for 10 seconds (perl)
51212  -  I        0:00.00 pwait -op 43968
53945  -  I        0:00.00 pwait -op 43968
17700  0  I+       0:00.00 pwait -op 43968
 6279  1  S+       0:00.00 grep 43968
root@router:~ # kill -9 43968
root@router:~ #                                                                               
*** FINAL System shutdown message from root@router.knebb.de ***             

System going down IMMEDIATELY                                                 

Anyone having an idea how to prevent this or to fix ddclient?

Thanks!

Since we also have issues with e.g. Suricata in some setups this will hit 26.7.4:
