pasted from bug 373666 Binary package hint: ddclient = Abstract The debconf configuration wizard for ddclient offers a choice of network interfaces to monitor for their bound ip, but doesn't offer the configuration of using 'web'. = Use Case 'web' tells ddclient not to use an ip bound to a network interface (if) but instead to make a GET call to the web and extract the external facing (i.e., gateway) ip from that for publication. This is the likely use case for >50% of ddclient users who would want to use the dyndns type services. = Howto See http://www.dyndns.com/support/kb/using_ddclient_with_dyndns_services.html for /etc/ddclient.conf settings ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 Dependencies: DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 Package: ddclient None [modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/ddclient.list] PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: ddclient Uname: Linux 2.6.28-11-generic x86_64 UnreportableReason: This is not a genuine Ubuntu package ** Summary changed: - installation failure with router installed + [patch] ddclient debconf doesn't offer 'web' as available configuration -- [patch] ddclient debconf doesn't offer 'web' as available configuration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/3429 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
