ez-ipupdate question

When I start Dyndns, I get the following message: WARNING: max-interval of 20000 is too short, using 86400

Is it possible to reduse the interval to less than one day ?

Another question; how do I get dyndns to auto-start, ie. after a reboot, exept for manualy typing /etc/rc.d/dyndns start ?

Just edit the /etc/dyndns.conf and change the max_intervall to 84000. To start your dyndns at boot, just make a symbolic link:
cd to /etc/rc.d/rc3.d
Create symlinks pointing to ../dyndns
- ln -s ../dyndns K81dyndns
- ln -s ../dyndns S81dyndns

Start the dyndns service "/etc/rc.d/dyndns start"

For further instructions, have a look under docs.astaro.org

Done all this, still dosn't autostart.
ps -aux dosn't list ez-ipudate

my conf-file:
-----------------
service-type=dyndns
user=xxxxx:xxxxx
host=myhostname.provider.net
interface=ppp0
max-interval=86400
cache-file=/tmp/ez-ipupdate.cache
daemon
--------------------

Any idea ?

It seems to be running now !!
Somehow the links was created with ..dyndns instead of ../dyndns.

How often will ez-ipupdate update the DNS ?
with max-intervall=86400 is the same as one day ...that's a bit long ....

Can I modify my conf to run updates more often ?

I think you have to try what minimum is possible, because 20000 is to less and you will get an error.
