ignore client-updates; Doesn't that mean fqdn.server-update should be ignored? All the examples I found also had send fqdn.server-update off; in the client config. In any case, changing the value as you suggest does appear to help, but it doesn't appear to be a complete solution, I had to do more: I tried sending both host-name and fqdn.hostname from the client and neither seems to be recognised by lines such as ddns-hostname = option host-name; ddns-hostname = option fqdn.hostname; so those don't seem to work. I've found that if I send a full FQDN in fqdn.fqdn and put this on the server: ddns-hostname = option fqdn.fqdn; ddns-domainname ""; then it does work for me. So I have a working solution, but it appears to be very rigid. Many existing clients (e.g. Debian and Ubuntu) just send the "host-name" option so it would be really nice to see that working. Should those other permutations work, or is it only possible to use fqdn.fqdn? > > I believe but haven't tested that ddns-hostname is properly scoped > so if you set it in a host record you can assign a name per host record. I'm having problems getting IPv6 host records working. Should I match by MAC or by DUID or are both supported? I've tried each of them and the clients don't seem to match. > I'm marking this ticket as rejected for now.
