I guess the noip updater could do with a version bump to the latest 2.1.3. Reason I looked at this is that now for the second time my noip address was set to 0.0.0.0 despite the fact that my computer is happily running. # noip2 -S 1 noip2 process active. Process 9299, started as noip2 -c /etc/no-ip2.conf Using configuration from /etc/no-ip2.conf Last IP Address set 82.135.66.xx Account xxxxxx.xxxxxxx@xxx.xxx configured for: host xxxxxx.sytes.net Address check every 5 minutes, directly connected via /dev/ppp0. Except for the "/dev/" this looks all right for me, and usually it does work. The No-IP.com web interface states "2006-08-29 00:58:21" as the time of the last change. If this is PDT as the rest of the site, then this might be the time of my last reboot immediately after writing bug 130766 comment 32. Restarting the service got me a correct registration, so it is a once in a time bug. Might be, that the No-IP machines somehow mixed the two requests, one so shortly after the other. But before filing a bug report there I'd like to make sure that I'm using the latest version of the updater. Thus my version bump request.
I recently had the same strange behavior. It now seems to work fine.
