Confused on how to set up DDNS Update softwae Nesos DDNS

Im trying to use Neso Dnamic DNS updater. The software was suggested by deSec.

I keep getting unauthorized. This seems to mean that I have entered the wrong username or password.

Am I wrong on how I have set it up?

Username: mydomain.dedyn.io

Password.: the same password i use to log into the deSec site. NOT the token.

Hostname: mydomain.dedyn.io (same as username)

I have tried many different configurations but they keep saying unauthorized??

Ok so I figured it out.

It was the password. It should be a token. It does not say that anywhere. Perhaps its assumed. I Did try the token. But I think because I changed the password at some point trying to resolve the issue, this may have disabled or changed the old Token. Anyway I created a new one, which in my opinion is not straight forward. but not hard. I put in new token and it worked.

Hope it helps

Thank you for following up with the solution. For future reference: The use of an API token for DNS updates is documented here.
