os-ddclient needs a way to test new config
« on: August 11, 2022, 01:56:51 pm »
I just did a new install, my site relies on FreeDNS to point the VPN to the facility.

os-ddclient does not provide a way to check if the config works. It needs an "Update IP now" button so we have feedback in the log, without pulling the ethernet jack!

Also... do someone know how to trigger the ddclient update manually? I really want to test this out before I go on vacation and it breaks while I'm miles away.

Can't you just stop and restart the service from the Services: Dynamic DNS: Settings submenu?

From the command line (Shell):

ddclient -force

That forces update.  Would be nice if it was in the GUI.
