      I have a custom DNS account at DynDNS, and I enabled the DynDNS in pfsense (1.2.2), but I cannot manage to get it working.

      If someone knows a howto, or has this config working, I would be grateful for any help.

      In pfsense DynDNS webgui, I selected:

      Service Type: DynDNS (custom)
      Hostname: myname.mydomain (full name)
      MX: left blank
      Wildcards: unselected
      username: DynDNS username
      password: DynDNS password

      RFC2136: disabled

      Here are the traces:

        I have re-created the entry in dyndns, and disconnected/reconnected from ADSL, and now it works fine.
