It's not. My mistake. Thanks to some suggestions off-list on using lynx
rather than curl, this seems to work OK:
#!/bin/ksh
# Cron this script to run every X minutes. Written for OpenBSD base.
# set FORCE_SSL_PROMPT:yes in /etc/lynx.cfg
user=test
pass=test
host=test.dyndns.org
# Get Current IP
lynx -dump http://checkip.dyndns.org:8245/ | awk '{print $4}' | sed
'/^$/d' > ip_new.txt
# Compare new with old.
diff ip_new.txt ip_old.txt
# If different, send update.
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
ip=$(cat ip_new.txt)
# Following two lines are optional. Log date of change and IP history.
date >> ip_date.txt
cat ip_old.txt >> ip_history.txt
lynx -dump -auth=${user}:${pass}
"https://members.dyndns.org/nic/update?hostname=${host}&myip=${ip}";
fi
# Whether a change has occurred or not, overwrite old with new
cp -f ip_new.txt ip_old.txt
