Hi, first and foremost the link you gave me is very generic in nature.I tried to use this command and it only returned a message of# dpkg -i https://www.dynu.com/support/downloadfile/31 dpkg: error processing archive https://www.dynu.com/support/downloadfile/31 (--install): cannot access archive: No such file or directoryErrors were encountered while processing: https://www.dynu.com/support/downloadfile/31So next step is I used the ddclient and I was able to install it on my Ubuntu Server 16.04.2 LTS.Now I am having trouble in how to fill in the /etc/ddclient.confdaemon=60syslog=yesmail=rootmail-failure=rootroot.pid=/var/run/ddclient.picuse=cisco, fw=192.168.0.1:80, fw-login=WHATDOIPUTHERE?, fw-password=ISTHISMYROUTERPASSWORD?server=api.dynu.comprotocol=dyndns2login=MYLOGINTODYNU.COM?password=MYPASSWORDATDYNU.COM?ssword.server321.dynu.net #SERVER I have configured in dyndns service.Please help to clarify
