Hi Gerry,
   Thanks for getting back to me.

I edited ddclient.conf, clearing out the lines that are not required for
my site (see below). Do I now need to restart the ddclient daemon? The
ddclient docs don't mention how to stop the process., and I'm weary of
simply "killing" it.

Anyways., I ran ddclient manually again after editing the file (note:
without restarting ddclient daemon) and this is returned:

# ddclient -daemon=3D0 -query --noquiet

Any ideas as to what is happening, or if I *do* need to restart the
daemon?


Thanks again for replying.
