Description

Background: DNS-O-Matic allows updates to be sent without a hostname or service specified, in which case all services are updated. However, the pfSense UI requires a valid hostname, and will not allow this case.

I hacked out all hostname validation to test the underlying update mechanism, forced an update, and verified on the DNS-O-Matic site that all services were updated. This suggests that only the UI validation needs to be updated.

Please see the attached trivial patch to make the hostname optional for DNS-O-Matic.

Is this still a problem? There have been lots of DynDNS changes since this report, but I don't see anything that looks like this patch in place.

If it is a problem, please make a pull request on github instead of attaching a patch.

Though I cannot confirm the DNS-O-Matic service accepts the request, the GUI no longer requires the hostname.
