I have setup my e-smith server to get me ip address to and dynamic name. I dont think it is sending the info to yi.org. The above info is from the /var/log/messages.

Thanks Doyle. - I am running the new 4.0 version.

Just from looking at the log you posted, it looks like your hostname is set to use y1.org, not yi.org.  Might that be causing the problem?

[Doyle Glaze]

What is what I see also. How do I change it in the e-smith server 4.0 software to goto yi.org and not to y1.org. This is how it came in ver. 4.0

I did see that also. The real question is how do I change the y1.org to yi.org. The program is programed in ver 4.0.

You'll need to show me where it is programmed in ver 4.0 - everywhere I've looked it is correctly set to yi.org.

The log file that you have shown an excerpt from only shows that *something* tried to look up an address in the y1.org domain, not what was looking it up.

Are you sure that you are having a problem with yi.org?

In the install of ver 4.0 their is an option for dyn dns service that you can use one being www.yi.org. After the install the ipaddress is not being sent. I looked in the /var/log/messages and found that it is trying to send the info to y1.org. Where can I look to see where this is setup in the e-smith software?

You don't know that, unless you are snooping all the traffic on the wire. What do you actually see? Do you see some sign from yi.org to indicate that your IP address is not updated?

No, what you see is that something is trying to look up the IP address of dglaze.y1.org. Unless you have more information that you haven't shown us, we don't know what is trying to look up that address. Perhaps you tried to look up that address yourself.

The program which is run to update the DNS record on yi.org is
/sbin/e-smith/dynamic-dns/yi. Its calling syntax is

/sbin/e-smith/dynamic-dns/yi x.x.x.x user passxxx
