Login on DNS-O-Matic Site using e-mail and password from OpenDNS.
Add new Service. From list select OpenDNS. Click button Update account info for sync OpenDNS Dashboard settings with DNS-O-Matic.

Setup openDNS in system settings

Set DNS addresses in resolv.conf file:

user $  sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf.head COPY TO CLIPBOARD

with code:
nameserver 208.67.222.222 nameserver 208.67.220.220

Note

If Your ISP provide IPv6 support, add these DNS IPv6 addresses entries in next lines in the /etc/resolv.conf.head file:

IPv6 DNS server addresses are:
nameserver 2620:119:35::35 nameserver 2620:119:53::53

Does not provide any level of filtering:
nameserver 2620:0:ccc::2 nameserver 2620:0:ccd::2

Setup openDNS in ddclient

#1 Install ddclient and ddclient dispatcher for NetworkManager:

user $  pamac build networkmanager-dispatcher-ddclient COPY TO CLIPBOARD

#2 Create backup a ddclient.conf file:

user $  sudo cp /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf.skel COPY TO CLIPBOARD

#3 Open ddclient.conf file in text editor.

user $  sudo nano /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf COPY TO CLIPBOARD

#4 Delete current content, paste in:

Note

REMEMBER - replace values email_address, password with correct values.

daemon=1800 syslog=yes pid=/var/run/ddclient.pid ssl=yes use=web, web=myip.dnsomatic.com server=updates.dnsomatic.com protocol=dyndns2 login=email_address password=password all.dnsomatic.com

Save changes in a file.

#5 Run command to enable NetworkManager-dispatcher.service:

-The ddclient daemon need opened incoming connections for ports '''53''', '''443''' and '''80'''.
