How to ddclient load after reboot on sme 7x

Thanks

ddclient is called with the ip up event. there is no need to do it manually.

sorry, but i have the same problem - following the readme of ddclient does not start it automatically after a reboot.  It does however work fine when you manually run it from the console.  Please help someone!

That's a very old post from 2002, and you would be advised not to use the rpm referred to.

Far better to use the contrib that is specifically for sme 7.x

Hi
You can use this command line,it's working fine
From the command line
echo "/etc/rc.d/init.d/ddclient start" >> /etc/rc.d/rc.local
