You can place your own dnsmasq.conf file in /mnt/kd which overrides any 
auto configured one.  I made a change this week to adjust the behavior 
of NODHCP in trunk.  You real need something like 
"except-interface=eth1".  I added this in SVN 1690 (in trunk).

The way we have dnsmasq configured it's pretty flexible.  You can do the

following:

1).  Make your own dnsmasq.conf and put it in /mnt/kd/ (then reboot)
2).  Add setting to dnsmasq.static in /mnt/kd which are added as an 
include to the autogenerated dnsmasq.conf

I need to review updates we did to trunk that did not transfer to the 
0.5 branch related to unionfs.  There may be a few tweaks needed.

If you need an example dnsmasq.conf that works well with WinSBS2k3, let 
me know.  I can email it or post it as an example online.
