Looks like legacy plugin, dyndns, which worked perfectly with AWS, got dropped.

There is 25 pages long thread about ddclient issues:
https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=26446.360

I'm getting very strange errors, and the error srting "No address found for" is not even in source code ... How to debug it, please?


Or can we have legacy dyndns plugin back please?

Hi, Just wanted to say I had the exact same error, until I filled in some of the config options correctly. It took me a bit of bumbling to figure out. Here is what my config looks like, so you can copy:

Rule 1:

  • Service: aws
  • Username: IAM access key
  • Password: IAM access key password
  • Zone: Z066***************JI
  • Hostname(s): home.p*******.com
  • TTL: 300
  • Check ip method: Interface (IPv6)
  • Interface to monitor: WAN
  • Check ip timeout: 10
  • Force SSL: Checked

I cloned this to also use Interface IPv4, and left the general setttings as default (backend is native). This is working for me.


Thanks mitchpleune, that worked for me
