Hi Chuck,
I've got the domain sorted now, but I'm having a problem setting up
ddclient. Well.., I can't seem to get this thing started, to be honest.
I've done the following:
In /usr/local/etc,
copied ddclient.conf.sample to ddclient.conf
edited ddclient.conf to use the router's IP, login & password
saved the file
went to /usr/local/sbin and tried starting manually for the first time
as per the instructions:
/usr/local/sbin $ sh ddclient start
require: not found
use: not found
use: not found
use: not found
use: not found
my: not found
my: not found
=3D~: not found
my: not found
=3D~: not found
my: not found
ddclient: 21: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
/usr/local/sbin $=20
Can you (anyone that using ddclient) please give me a hand here?
Stacey
