I am trying to get my DDNS to work. I am running a PFSense firewall and am using the Dynu Custom IP Update URL.

https://api.dynu.com/nic/update?hostname=My-HostName&password=MyIPUpdatePassword

My ip never gets updated.

If I use the URL above in a browser (with the real hostname and real update password) I get badauth

What gives?

Thanks.

Ray

nochg means there is no change in the IP address so no update is needed. badauth is wrong password or you try to update a subdomain as a main domain.

badauth is either a wrong password or try to update a subdomain as a mail domain. To update a subdomain of your main domain such as sub.yourdomain.com, you need to use api.dynu.com/nic/update?hostname=yourdomain.com&alias=sub&password=PASS

OK, so updating just the main domain worked; however, updating the subdomain using:

api.dynu.com/nic/update?hostname=yourdomain.com&alias=sub&password=PASS

does not work. That is:

https://api.dynu.com/nic/update?hostname=mydomain.org&password=PASS

returned "good xx.xx.xx.xx"

However
https://api.dynu.com/nic/update?hostname= mydomain.org&alias=lmydomain.org&password=PASS

still returns badauth.

still returns badauth.

If the subdomain is aaaa.mydomain.org, then the update URL is

https://api.dynu.com/nic/update?hostname=mydomain.org&alias=aaaa&password=PASS
