[tracerrx]

Applied patch, cleared log, restarted service and I still get the below:

@franco sent you a PM with complete output of /usr/local/etc/ddclient.conf and created a test domain for you to use

[franco]

I debugged this just now (yay, it's Perl!) and this is the bad line inside nic_dyndns2_update():

https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient/blob/841ffcbdaa009687e5fb390c4527055e929f959a/ddclient.in#L4197

Replace with:

my $h = $hosts[0];

In all honesty I don't understand how it tries to handle multiple host names here by browsing through the result line by line (one hostname one line????).


Cheers,
Franco

Works!
But still doesn't show Current IP or time updated in GUI.
Is it suppose to do this?

[franco]

I'm not sure about the GUI, but it does show up in the status file:

/var/tmp/ddclient.cache

But that's only for dyndns2. I think duckdns and other code paths are still broken upstream.
