Error: dynamic IP update failed with message !yours

If you make an update via your client and receive the message !yours there are two possibilities:

  1. Someone else is using that single IP address (a /32 in CIDR notation) in their OpenDNS account, perhaps because they did not properly enable dynamic IP updating in their account. Please provide details.
  2. You've requested an IP address which is part of a larger netblock managed by another OpenDNS customer. The other customer limits management of individual addresses within their larger netblock.

In either case, your update will not register successfully with OpenDNS, and your OpenDNS preferences will not be in effect, although you will still enjoy speedy, reliable DNS.
