I use Winbox often instead of the CLI, where it shows this:
The “Don’t Require Permissions” checkbox is checked. Doesn’t that mean “dont-require-permissions=yes”
And yet, the export does indeed show “dont-require-permissions=no”
when I realized I have 2 different scripts (see if you can tell the difference):
dyndns
DynDNS
Ugh – I think the system (but more likely I) was confusing them somewhere along the way.
Using a form of brute force troubleshooting, I’m pretty sure I’ve isolated the problem as occuring only when there is a change in IP number, and probably stemming from this line (4th from end of script) in the script:
/file remove "$identitydate-IP.txt"
This is the script that is causing the error:
/system
:local cdate [clock get date]
:local yyyy [:pick $cdate 0 4]
:local MM [:pick $cdate 5 7]
:local dd [:pick $cdate 8 10]

:set previousIP
for localize all commands without write in every line /system,
on this case only date is used, but also gmt-offset, time-zone-autodetect, dst-active, time, time-zone-name can be obtained without write everytime /system
I know that … wrong question asked: What is the purpose of that?
Just for a few commands? All others are fully qualified so maybe the wrong default context set with /system is the problem?
