Bug 406805 – net-dns/ddclient-3.8.1-r4 - Multiple interface support is broken

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST

[Description masc 2012-03-03 17:49:46 UTC]

This has been working fine in 3.8.0.

Example config:

use=if,if=ppp0, \
server=members.dyndns.org,protocol=dyndns2, \
login=<user>, \
password=<pw> \
<domain1>

use=if,if=ppp1, \
server=members.dyndns.org,protocol=dyndns2, \
login=<user>, \
password=<pw> \
<domain2>

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update to 3.8.1-r4

Actual Results:  
All dns entries are updated with the same ip.

Expected Results:  
Dns entries should have different ips, referring to the interfaces configured.

[Comment 1 Aaron W. Swenson 2012-03-06 23:05:25 UTC]

We don't make any changes to the source code except to support 'ip' instead of 'ifconfig'.

The issue is known upstream:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ddclient/ticket/14

[Comment 2 masc 2012-03-08 09:34:21 UTC]

why is this resolved/wontfix just because it's known upstream?

this bug is supposed to stay open until it's fixed upstream and then set to resolved/upstream afaik.

also it's marked upstream as a blocker, so I don't see how any 3.8.1 release would be stable.

updated importance to "blocker" according to upstream ticket #14.

[Comment 3 masc 2012-12-26 12:36:00 UTC]

not resolved upstream, same state as before.

[Comment 4 Aaron W. Swenson 2014-01-30 12:35:47 UTC]

Please test ddclient-3.8.2.

[Comment 5 masc 2014-01-31 12:04:54 UTC]

meanwhile my setup has changed (from ppp dialup to ipv6 router), so I can't test this anylonger.

[Comment 6 Aaron W. Swenson 2014-03-09 21:45:01 UTC]

Well, one of the notes mentioned multiple use parameters. It should be fixed, but I can't test it either.
