All of the examples I see for setting up dnsmasq on networks without a "real" domain always say to choose a "fake" local domain (e.g. .lan, ..home.arpa, .local, etc.). Then you also configure dnsmask to treat that domain as local so that requests for that domain are never forwarded.
Why? Are you not allowed to have have an empty domain so that "plain" hostnames are satisfied locall (e.g. from /etc/hosts and the DHCP leases) and only requests with a domain are forwarded to the external server? -- Grant _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk https://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
