Peter, you are correct, I do think I can share some data. Namecheap's documentation is pretty good on what is needed, but the link below has a bit better definition when it comes to setting up the hosts.
https://www.labsrc.com/multiple-domains-with-ddclient-namecheap/ Namecheap's documentation for setting up ddclient using your hostname, just states add your 'hostname', something like 'www'. This is not fully defined. My simple hostname (like they stated in their documentation) didn't resolve correctly and the example in the link above shows a bit better approach (copied example from link above): daemon=300 ssl=yes use=web web=dynamicdns.park-your-domain.com/getip protocol=namecheap server=dynamicdns.park-your-domain.com # First Domain login=domainone.com password=dynamicdnspassword @.domainone.com, www.domainone.com, test.domainone.com # Second Domain login=domaintwo.com password=dynamicdnspassword @.domaintwo.com, www.domaintwo.com, mail.domaintwo.com, stuff.domaintwo.com The Hosts (@.domainone.com, www.domainone.com, test.domainone.com) are fully defined. Once I fully defined my hosts in the config (and corrected one wrong digit in the password), ddclient worked error free and I was good. I hope this helps the next guy...
