Description (last modified by macsforever2000@…) (diff)
Hi there,
just a few minor issues I came across while installing ddclient:
- A man page is missing. This would ideally contain info about how to use org.macports.ddclient.plist (same as displayed after installation) and OS X specific config options (see below).
The sample config cannot be used as such for two reasons:
- ssl-support is set to yes in sample config but cannot work if p5-io-socket-ssl is not installed (use as dependency?)
- Cache file is '/var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache' by default (if not set in config). This directory doesn't exist by default. Setting cache explicitly to /tmp/ddclient.cache might be a better choice.

There is no man page available in the distribution, so none are installed.
The README document (and other documentation) is installed in ${prefix}/share/ddclient
I added the SSL dependency creation and the default cache directory in r62136.

I only just installed ddclient today, but it still doesn't seem to have a correctly set default cache directory (it's still trying to use /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache). I've been unable to find what the correct .conf directive is for changing the cache location, does anyone know what it is?
