    Thank you for nice instruction. I followed your guid. I am using redhat6. the service is rung. I set the update time as 5 minutes.when I check noip2 -S command it says it updating every 5 minutes. but it not updating every 5 minutes. it only get updated if I restart the system or if I restart the service.
