One thing, I believe they told us not long ago to change the server to: server=dynamic.zoneedit.com At least that's what I've got in my conf. Other than that, is this your whole file? I think you have to have a 'use' line that tells the script where to get the IP address. That would explain "Invalid Value for keyword 'ip' = ''", if it doesn't know where to get the IP and it tries to set it to '', that wouldn't help you much. See http://ddclient.wiki.sourceforge.net/Routers Mine is: use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org/, web-skip='IP Address: ' --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
