Cycle through web sources
Is there a way to do this? Like:
use=web
web=http://freemyip.com/checkip, http://whatismyip.akamai.com/,http://ipecho.net/plain
So it cycles through them, in case one is down (also, so they don't get overloaded)
Currently no, not possible. However adding more intelligent IP acquisition (fallbacks, round-robin querying, sanity checking etc.) is something I want to improve, I just haven't found any time.
I wrote a bit about wanting to decouple IP acquisition as part of the general goal of making ddclient more modular & maintainable in #584 Thia kind of improvement would probably fit into this as well - have simple IP acquisition scripts that ddclient then combines for redundancy, load balancing etc.
