Thanks for this. I had

use=if, if=eth0

eth0 is the default (on this line) in "new" ddclient from f8 and it
should ppp0, for I have an ADSL connection. I changed it to ppp0 and it
is working now.

Questions:

1- ddclient is running as ddclient, group ddclient; so I have this
message in the logs:

WARNING:  Cannot create file '/var/run/ddclient.pid'. (Permission non
accordée)


How can I change the ownership of the process from "ddclient" to "root"?


2- Mikkel has suggested to have a look at /etc/sysconfig/ddclient, but
the only config in this file is:

DDCLIENT_OPTIONS="-daemon 300"

So it has no influence on the process, except the time interval to check
the ip.

My question is: why are there two config files: one in /etc, one in
/etc/sysconfig?

Thanks for help.
