88.88.88.88 - this is an actual IP, but in the no-ip service, the address does not change, but remains old..
Has anyone encountered this problem?

@proger Same problem. pfSense 2.5.2

@marlenio

The free one ?
If yes .... I know, the free own is often spoken about in the forum.

I do see what is shown above and more (using pfSense 2.5.2) :

I logged in to my noip account using these settings :

so I knew the login mail and used password were fine.

Still, "badauth" and "Invalid username password combination" are shown in the logs.

From what I recall; lately, there were some changes, as how credentials are passed, or something like that.

edit :

As I really don't need ',noip' I could use the perfect solution :

(this one is safe, will always work, and makes your config easier, smaller, less error prone )

Or, I could have a look at what happened lately.

You could consider "installing" this patch, or, as it is just one line, edit the file directly.
It worked for me (no more error messages).

@gertjan Hi, thank you!
I've installed your patch and now No-IP update it works flawlessy!

Gertjan

@marlenio
Great.

Btw, it's not my patch, credits go to @vktg.

Marlenio

@gertjan OK, but thanks anyway.

Apologies for the basic question, but I am just starting out with pfSense. I am having the same issue (I think). I have a paid no-ip.com subscription and have entered the correct details using the "noip" option in pfSense Dynamic DNS settings and pfSense tells me it successfully updates, but the no-ip support team tell me there's an authentication error in their logs and nothing gets updated.

Is your 'patch' to update the src/etc/inc/dyndns.class file in the pfSense shell and remove the urlencode text as suggested?

Just wanted to double check how to apply the 'patch'?

Thanks,
Jon

You need to install the System Patches package:
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/development/system-patches.html

and apply Patch ID 4aab19d4ade5d164c22bd63b2833d54bab740d59

see https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12021
