I always found that the "use=" line that Debian sets up didn't work for
me.  I always use "use=web".  Here is my ddclient.conf file:

pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid
protocol=dyndns2
use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org/, web-skip='IP Address' # found after IP
Address
server=members.dyndns.org
login=mylogin
password='mypassword'
mydns.dyndns.com

I never get "your account is about to expire" messages, so everything
seems to be working as it should.
