ddclient is working.
I checked it with:
sudo ddclient -foreground -file
/home/florian/repo/myLinux/data/nuc/ddclient.conf

The cache file gets updated, sudo cat  /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache
## .ddclient-real-3.9.1
## last updated at Fri Dec 24 11:08:10 2021 (1640340490)
atime=0,backupmx=0,custom=0,host=nuc.pinkgorilla.org,ip=85.125.195.170,mtime=1640340334,mx=,script=/nic/update,static=0,status=,warned-min-error-interval=0,warned-min-interval=0,wildcard=0,wtime=30
nuc.pinkgorilla.org

I can also run ddclient without sudo, but this then does not update
ddclient.cache file. But it does its job.

As a service it is not working though. This is my service definition.
service-ddclient-nuc is used in the operating system definiton.
(define-public service-ddclient-nuc
(service ddclient-service-type
(ddclient-configuration
(secret-file "/home/florian/repo/myLinux/data/nuc/ddclient.conf")
)))


in var/log/messages I get this error(I just pasted 3 errors; it repeats
every 5 minutes).
Dec 24 10:15:34 localhost .ddclient-real[10715]: WARNING:  found neither
ipv4 nor ipv6 address
Dec 24 10:20:34 localhost .ddclient-real[10715]: WARNING:  found neither

Dec 24 10:25:34 localhost .ddclient-real[10715]: WARNING:  found neither

Perhaps the ddclient service needs to wait until network is available?

Hi Florian,

ddclient removed in 1bd44b425b79e9da160b33a9b19d01973b44772e because
it's unmaintained by the upstream project as discussed in 64669 issue.

Oleg.
