You can adjust the execution interval by changing the value of StartInterval (in seconds) in /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.ddclient.plist. - Bottle: verfügbar auf arm64_linux, arm64_sequoia, arm64_sonoma, arm64_tahoe, sonoma, x86_64_linux ## Version und Aktualität - Seite generiert: 2026-08-04 - Manager-Version: 4.0.0 - Manager aktualisiert: 2026-07-28 - lokale Daten: OK - Upstream-Repository: https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient - Info: No cached GitHub release or tag data was available. ## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung ddclient is a Perl dynamic DNS update client for many DNS service providers. Its README says it updates dynamic DNS entries, uses curl for internet access, and supports Linux, macOS, and other Unix-like systems. ### Projektgeschichte The README credits Paul Burry as the original author and says the project is now maintained through GitHub. The GitHub repository was created in 2012, while the modern 4.x series moved the default configuration path into /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf. ### Adoptionsgeschichte ddclient became a common distribution package because dynamic DNS is a recurring home-lab, small-server, and broadband-router need. The README explicitly recommends installing an operating-system package where available and lists many supported providers. ### Wie es verwendet wird A typical install edits /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf with provider credentials, hostnames, and IP-discovery settings, then runs ddclient as a daemon or service. The README includes systemd setup and troubleshooting commands such as ddclient --daemon=0 --debug --verbose. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package nerds, ddclient is a classic network daemon package: small, configurable, service-managed, and shaped by provider churn. Its changelog shows the maintenance burden of tracking DNS providers, protocol changes, TLS defaults, and distribution-friendly config migrations. ### Zeitleiste - 2012: GitHub repository created - 2025: v4.0.0 release changed the default config location to /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf - 2026: v4.0.1-rc.1 release published ### Related projects - inadyn, dnsupdate, nsupdate, systemd ### Quellen - - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. formula declares a Homebrew service. - **Geiger-Risiko:** orange / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal - formula declares a Homebrew service ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
