How are you running dyndns.js? What command-line arguments are you passing to
it?

dyndns.js doesn't take a user name or password from modopts.ini, so I'm not sure
what you're refering to. The login id (user name) is by default, your system's
QWK-ID ("GEO"?) unless you override that with the '-hn' command-line option. The
password to use is always passed as the first command-line argument to
dyndns.js.

See https://wiki.synchro.net/module:dyndns for more details.

The default configuration of the DYNDNS timed event (in SCFG->External
Programs->Timed Events) works for the vast majority of Synchronet sysops, so if
you're making changes to this pre-configured event, maybe explain why.
