     Specify a configuration file. The presence of this option stops
dnsmasq from reading the default configuration file (normally
/etc/dnsmasq.conf). Multiple files may be specified by repeating the
option either on the command line or in configuration files. A filename
of "-" causes dnsmasq to read configuration from stdin.

I am confused with "The presence of this option STOPS dnsmasq FROM
READING the default configuration" part.


IIUC, this is only for when -C or --conf-file= is used *on the command line*... AFAIK it does not apply when conf-file is found inside a config file...
