I'm using ddclient to automatically update my DynDNS account dynamic ip. I have
found that ddclient does not take into account the 35 day idle time limit DynDNS
has on its dynamic ips. I came back from holiday yesterday only to discover
that my dyndns account had been closed 4 days earlier. I guess that's the downside
of having a really stable connection...
Is there a way to force ddclient to update the IP, even if no change is necessary?
I tried making a monthly cron job that calls ddclient with -force but apparently
that doesn't force the update either since the web service itself reports the
same ip as ddclient is trying to set and ddclient just goes all:
SUCCESS:  updating evinyatar.ath.cx: nochg: No update required; unnecessary
attempts to change to the current address are considered abusive

Any ideas?
