TLDR: Describe your issue in a one liner here
I've had a ddns updater configured with ovh(dynhost) method for the last 6 month, it just stopped working with a "Nohost" answer

Is this urgent: Yes
DNS provider(s) you use: ovh
Program version: 2.6.0
What are you using to run the container: docker-compose
Extra information (optional)

Configuration file (remove your credentials!):

{
  "settings": [
    {
      "provider": "ovh",
      "domain": "domain.com",
      "host": "sub",
      "username": "username",
      "password": "password",
      "ip_version": "ipv4",
      "provider_ip": true
    }
  ]
}

Host OS:
ubuntu server.

!!! Important. I noticed that the "hostname" was a bit repetitive(subdomain.domain.com.domain.com". I tried to access myself to this URL, which gave me a result of "nohost" too.

I changed the domain in the url to be:

https://username:password@0www.ovh.com/nic/update?hostname=subdomain.domain.com&system=dyndns
And then it was able to work

Are you sure your domain isn't set to domain.com.domain.com?? I checked the code but it doesn't seem to be buggy 🤔 Or your host set to subdomain.domain.com?
