os-ddclient does not update IPv4

[juantxorena]

Hello,

I have a domain with cloudflare, and I'm trying to update the dynamic IPs (both 4 and 6), but only IPv6 gets updated. I have tried all the IP check methods, with wildcard, without wildcard, a single entry, one entry for IPv4 and another for IPv6. It simply doesn't work. I attach a screenshot of my latest config attempt.

The old deprecated dyndns plugin works perfectly (and it has more options, a widget, actually works, and it's in general better).

Another thing is that the new ddclient occasionally stops working, and it's only fixed by restarting.

Hello,
It's the way ddnsclient works…
It merges all given configurations with the same hostname, so if you creates 2 rules for the same hostname (1 for ipv4 and 1 for ipv6), the config is merged when loaded.

I tried to made a patch on the opnsense plugin, to use the right way ddclient works (set `usev4` and `usev6` config instead of `use`)
It works on my config, but I absolutely dont know how to create a real patch on the repo (I patched the files directly on my router…)

I had the same problem as you on Cloudflare as well. Instead I made some modifications to ddclient (3.10) enhanced it to update as soon IP changed and skip DNS update if record on Cloudflare matches current WAN IP.
