dyndns Error

[nello]

Apparently my DDNS is not working correctly:

I've checked and verified the username/password for dyndns.org.

Can anyone recommend another place to look for the problem?

Thank you for your help.

I've been running 8.0.3 for a while, and I've found the dyndns feature just stops working properly after a while, requiring the service to be shut off and turned back on again.

Okay, I'll turn it off on FreeNAS and use my router's DDNS capabilities instead.

Thank you for your reply.

Looks like it was my mistake.

On the Dnydns.org website, you can log in by entering either the username or email address in the username field.

However, on FreeNAS DDNS, you must put your username in the username field; putting the email address in the username field results in the error I reported above.
