This problem has been fixed in noip2 2.1.7-4 in debian. This package can
now be merged from debian. The actual noip2 version in Hardy is 2.1.7-3

** Description changed:

  When installing no-ip, the /etc/no-ip.conf file isn't generated. It's
  automatically generated when configuring no-ip with "sudo no-ip -C"
  command.
  
- This causes a problem :
- 
- Because the /etc folder is owned by root, it's necessary to run no-ip as
- root to generate the config file. Because of this, the /etc/no-ip.conf
- owner is set to root and after this, it's not possible to use no-ip
- because it can't read his own config file. Changing the file permissions
- is necessary to make it works.
- 
- Because no-ip generate his no-ip.conf file, putting a empty file with
- good permissions doesn't give any result because the file is just
- overwriten by the one generated by no-ip.
- 
- Maybe that something can be fixed around that?
+ In fact, this config file should be stored in /var/lib because it's a
+ binary file.
