DynDns wierdness

DynDns says my IP was changed this morning at 7am, to 10.8.3.37.

I'm looking at the Astaro logs, and there doesn't seem to be anything with that ip or 'dyndns' this morning.

Also, in /var/chroot-dhcpc/ the lease files are not dated today, so I don't _think_ my ip actually changed.

Therefore, I can't account for the change.

One more thing... I tried running
/var/mdw/scripts/dyndns restart
and got an error
:: restart dyndns
dyndns error: already running (PID=5158)
dyndns error: still not running
[ failed ]

I tried again a few minutes later and it said [ok].
DynDns isn't showing an update though.

Hi Barry,

you have to search through system.log for some entries of 'ddclient', which means the dyndns-service.

Hmm, nothing in yesterday's system log about ddclient until 9pm when I ran the service restart.

Thanks,
Barry

Keep an eye on the system.log and check if this behavior happen one more time.

Will do.
Do you have any idea where the IP 10.8.3.37 would have come from? It's not in any of the networks or VPNs I use, and there's nothing to indicate that dhcpc got a new IP after April 10th.

I'm sure it's possible it was a dyndns glitch unrelated to Astaro.

Thanks,
Barry
