@BPplays Have you tried the latest master revision? There have been some recent fixes to dyndns2.

[BPplays]

@rhansen it seems to be fixed in master aka 5757f7e

[BPplays]

@rhansen this issue seems to have come back again i think on the same commit but i tested on 9256096 and it seems its still broken, i checked dynu and the v4 is not set at all and v6 is set to the temp gua:

Looks like ddclient is sending the right IP address to dynu, so the problem is either (1) a bug at dynu, or (2) ddclient is not sending the IP addresses in the format expected by dynu.

It's unclear to me which case this is. Reading dynu's documentation, it looks like dyndns2 is not the correct protocol. dyndns2 does myip={{ipv4}},{{ipv6}} but dynu expects myip={{ipv4}}&myipv6={{ipv6}}. However, dynu's own ddclient documentation says to use dyndns2.

Looks like we'll have to add a new dynu protocol, unless dynu modifies their service to support both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in the myip parameter.

@rhansen i tried with just a curl command and myip={{ipv4}}&myipv6={{ipv6}} seems to work but myip={{ipv4}},{{ipv6}} doesn't.
maybe dynu doesn't well support v6 and assumes you aren't ​using it, based on what you said i assume dynu's ddclient config works with v4 only configurations,
also if i curl to set just the v4 address it seems to set the v6 to whatever sent the request to change it which may be problematic for configs that try to set just the v4 address

i checked dynu and it's just the temp gua and no v4, i'd guess if the request it gets is invalid it defaults to whatever ip sent the request
