Zentyal 2.2 ddclient configuration
« on: January 15, 2013, 03:08:59 pm »
I have a Zentyal 2.2 server running in a school, hooked up to internet with a consumer connection. This connection has a dynamic IP address and since the Belgium ISP's are very eager to harass customers with changing IP addresses, I have to depend on Zentyal dyndns service.

Unfortunately the config of ddclient is not set to 'daemon mode' after a server reboot.

When I look at /usr/share/zentyal/stubs/networking/ddclient.mas I see the following line:
Code: [Select]
# Set to "true" if ddclient should run in daemon mode.
run_daemon="<% $enabled ? 'true' : 'false' %>"
Can anyone explain why this is copied to /etc/default/ddclient with
Quote
run_daemon="false"
??

This makes ddclient NOT to update whenever an IP change occurs.

So how should I change ddclient.mas to always force /etc/default/ddclient to show run_daemon="true"?
