I a while ago spent major time trying to get EZ-IPUPD to work and in the end gave up and wrote my own scripts to do it.
The latest versions are sitting at here www.help.co.nz/leaf/check_ip.zip I use it as follows: Every 10 minutes /etc/init.d/multicron runs the main script /usr/sbin/check_ip this script checks to see it the IP of the domainname it finds in /etc/dyndns.conf has changed and if it has then does a ping to that dyndns name and double checks BEFORE updating dydns with the new IP ( had to to the ping check as I too was getting abuse status ). Now I dont claim to be any expert in writing scripts but this works and works well on quite a few bering installed firewalls. I'm always open for input...
