Should I submit this as problem report? I don't know since I have not educated myself on the process of building a package so I don't know what the intended outcome should be. Maybe you are or maybe you're not experiencing a 'real' problem. May I suggest you remove said package and just build the port, it sounds like it would save you a headache. If I recall it's not that big and wouldn't take but a few minutes. # cd /usr/ports/dns/ez-ipupdate # make install clean Cheers, Luke ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Thanks, I have not read through the files you sent, but I have a point I want to clear up. I installed the package version and it does not have the help stuff. I am coming to the conclusion that the person who built the package which is distributed from the FBSD ftp site did it wrong, as it is missing this stuff you have access to. I think this is me problem. Should I submit this as problem report? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 5:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ORG Subject: RE: ez-ipupdate setup info needed > Luke > Thanks for your reply > When I run ez-ipupdate --help or -help or help or ? it just goes > to service prompt and if I hit enter again it displays msg to > uses an list of names. > > Really need more help Umm.. how about this. The attached file "ez-ipupdate.help.txt" contains the output for ez-ipupdate --help. Where it says -S, --service-type, find the one you need for zoneedit. You can see my ez-ipupdate.conf only contains 6 lines, I figure you need to change the service part to zoneedit, ie the -S switch, and the user=[:password] to your user name and password and put that in /usr/local/etc. Copy the ez-ipupdate.sh to /usr/local/etc/rc.d Add ez_ipupdate_enable="YES" to your /etc/rc.conf reboot or type # /usr/local/bin/ez-ipupdate -c /usr/local/etc/ez-ipupdate.conf Hope this is of more help Luke ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

RE: ez-ipupdate setup info needed
Luke Thanks for your reply When I run ez-ipupdate --help or -help or help or ? it just goes to service prompt and if I hit enter again it displays msg to uses an list of names.

If you installed it from ports try # /usr/local/bin/ez-ipupdate --help to get a list of options. Pay attention to the -S for your service. I would assume that you probably want this to run from boot. Check in /usr/local/etc for the ez-ipupdate.conf.sample and change it to suit your needs and /usr/local/etc/rc.d for the ez-ipupdate.sh. You may have to add ez_ipupdate_enable="YES" to your /etc/rc.conf file.
