I searched the error around but did not find any real solutions.

I'm trying to use ddclient manually, ie: providing it the IP it should set with
DynDNS.  I tried it with this command (with or without -use=ip, no difference):

  # ddclient -use=ip -ip 1.2.3.223 -file /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf -daemon
0 -verbose

In return, I get:

  # ddclient[7249]: SUCCESS:  somehost.mine.nu: skipped: IP address was already
set to 1.2.3.222.

I thought the whole point was to update something that might very possibly be
already set to something else.  Deleting /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache
is the only way to get it to update the IP.  I also waited 10 or so minutes
beteen updates.  Am I missing something?

Below is my config:

  daemon=300
  syslog=yes
  mail=root
  mail-failure=root
  pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid
  ssl=no
  protocol=dyndns2
  server=members.dyndns.org

  login=uname
  password=passwd

  custom=yes,                              \
  server=members.dyndns.org,    \
  protocol=dyndns2                      \
  somehost.mine.nu
