I own 4 domains which are managed in Zoneedit. I configured ddclient with all hosts listed in one line, separated by a comma (e.g. www.h1.com,www.h2.com,www.h3.com)
The response I receive from zoneedit is the following:
RECEIVE: <SUCCESS CODE="201" TEXT="no update required for www.h1.com to 111.11.11.11" ZONE="www.h1.com,www.h2.com,www.h3.com">
SUCCESS: updating www.h1.com: IP address set to 111.11.11.11 (201: no update required for www.h1.com to 111.11.11.11)
FAILED: updating www.h2.com,www.h3.com: no response from dynamic.zoneedit.com
The problem is that zoneedit does not process more than one h:ost. It only processes the first host in the list. I checked the source of ddclient which confirms my observations
subnic_zoneedit1_update{debug("\nnic_zoneedit1_update -------------------");## group hosts with identical attributes togethermy%groups=group_hosts_by([@_],[qw(login password server zone)]);...
As the zoneedit login ID is case insensitive, I created multiple entries in /etc/ddclient.conf, every single host is now configured with a different login IDs. This is how I can work around the issue.
Second observation: For every host, the public IP address is identified again. In my eyes, this is not necessary, as it can be assumed that the address won't change so quickly.

I own 4 domains which are managed in Zoneedit. I configured ddclient with all hosts listed in one line, separated by a comma (e.g. www.h1.com,www.h2.com,www.h3.com)
In the above example, ddclient creates the following call: http://dynamic.zoneedit.com/auth/dynamic.html?host=www.h1.com,www.h2.com,www.h3.com&dnsto=111.11.11.11
The response I receive from zoneedit is the following:
RECEIVE: <SUCCESS CODE="201" TEXT="no update required for www.h1.com to 111.11.11.11" ZONE="www.h1.com,www.h2.com,www.h3.com">
