ddclient (over SSL) refuses to work with systemd, perhaps due to some weird sandboxing preventing perl module loading? On the other hand, ddclient.service doesn't have any "security features" enabled like private tmp or etc. In ddclient.conf, set ssl=yes to enforce dyndns update over SSL. systemctl restart ddclient.service: paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[2885]: WARNING: forcing update of myhost.no-ip.org from old_ip to some_new_ip; 25 days since last update on Sat Mar 18 01:51:46 2017. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[3029]: WARNING: forcing update of myhost.no-ip.org from old_ip to some_new_ip; 25 days since last update on Sat Mar 18 01:51:46 2017. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[2885]: FATAL: Error loading the Perl module IO::Socket::SSL needed for SSL connect. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[2885]: FATAL: On Debian, the package libio-socket-ssl-perl must be installed. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[2885]: FATAL: On Red Hat, the package perl-IO-Socket-SSL must be installed. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[3030]: FATAL: Error loading the Perl module IO::Socket::SSL needed for SSL connect. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[3030]: FATAL: On Debian, the package libio-socket-ssl-perl must be installed. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost ddclient[3030]: FATAL: On Red Hat, the package perl-IO-Socket-SSL must be installed. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost systemd[1]: ddclient.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE paź 30 04:08:25 myhost systemd[1]: ddclient.service: Unit entered failed state. paź 30 04:08:25 myhost systemd[1]: ddclient.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

Does this happen still with 3.9.0?
