Logging to syslog is controlled by the "syslog=yes|no" parametere. If
you want to control the way ddclient logs to syslog you have to
manipulate the facility (default:daemon) and priority (default:notice)
setting.
Check your syslog manual for more information.

The message wasn't because ddclient detected your IP didn't change.
It's a response from you dynamica dns provider which is warning you.
Ddclient tries to find your current IP address, compares it with the
value it has cached and if it's changed it tries to update your
dynamic provider. There are a few exceptions: if you used force or
last update has been done more than (by default) 25 days agon, it also
updates your provider.
