      I've used ddclient to update dyndns from linux boxes.  One really nice feature is that it emails me a status report if my IP changes or if it performed a forced refresh.  Can Pfsense do this?  It would be a nice feature.

        dns-o-matic can do this for you, and pfsense can work with dns-o-matic.

          Thanks.  I just signed up but it would still be a nice feature in pfsense.

              The economy is pretty bad right now.  A bounty I could afford wouldn't attract anyone  :(

                Try this on for size.
                Run this

                pkg_add -r http://files.pfsense.org/packages/All/sendmail-8.13.8.tbz
                

                Then add a mail(); function call to /etc/inc/dyndns.class…I'd do it for you, but I don't have time to incorporate the GUI...
