Im not sure about ddclient, but execvps is a Unix system call that runs another executable ( usually after a new process is spawned ). My guess is that you have rights to execute the script, but not the application the script wants to run. You may have to become the root user to run this script: type su <enter> then your root password <enter> then run thwe script again.
