I have been using dnsomatic since forever and never had a problem with it.
Just recently I noticed that my hostnames aren't being updated.
When I checked the Dynamic DNS service log I found that all attempts to update the ip giving errors
191107 : #> /bin/uclient-fetch -q -O /var/run/ddns/DNS.dat -Y off 'http://user:***PW***@updates.dnsomatic.com/nic/update?hostname=all.dnsomatic.com&myip=xx.xx.xx.xx' 2>/var/run/ddns/DNS.err
191107 ERROR : uclient-fetch Error: '8'
Couldn't find any work around for it.
But replacing dnsomatic with another service like dynu for example, everything works fine
and when updating the ip I get
191129 : #> /bin/uclient-fetch -q -O /var/run/ddns/DNS.dat -Y off 'http://api.dynu.com/nic/update?hostname=myhostname.net&myip=xx.xx.xx.xx&username=user&password=***PW***' 2>/var/run/ddns/DNS.err

good xx.xx.xx.xx
So the problem is localized to dnsomatic only so far.
Any ideas what might have caused dnsomatic to stop working for no apparent reason?
And is it just me who is getting errors with dnsomatic or are there others having the same problem?
