The file: /cf/conf/dyndns_wanzoneedit'my.domain.net'.cache Indeed contains the cached IP address, but the file system is mounted read-only. I assume this is due to the fact that I am running the embedded version. I'm starting to think that the answer is an unqualified "NO". -K On 2/22/2012

I do not have a RFC 2136 DNS setup to debug this with. It is probably not related because the DynDNS and RFC 2136 features are basically completely separate. - Y On Wed, Feb 22, 2012 at 6:29 PM, Bob Gustafson wrote: > See also http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/2166 > > On Wed, 2012-02-22 at 18:
