Nope, sorry, it's not that easy. It fails *all* entries made in that list, even if they're used to override valid external DNS names (e.g. when I want somehost.example.com to resolve to a 192.168.x.x internally). Judging from the logs, it seems that during startup, dnsmasq believes /etc/hosts is empty - it states that it read 0 hosts from there. I now have an ugly two-step workaround: 1) Install ShellCmd package. 2) Add a shellcmd entry 'pfSsh.php playback svc restart dnsmasq'. After that, the log file states the correct number of hosts in /etc/hosts. Could this be some kind of weird race condition, maybe? 'dnsmasq' starting before the hosts from the XML are added to /etc/hosts? Hmm - even weirder - first it reports the correct number, then it's down to 0, then it reports the correct number again twice (the 07:43:45 entries are triggered by the workaround listed above): May 15 07:43:43 cora dnsmasq[17417]: started, version 2.76 cachesize 10000 May 15 07:43:43 cora dnsmasq[17417]: compile time options: IPv6 GNU-getopt no-DBus i18n IDN DHCP DHCPv6 no-Lua TFTP no-conntrack ipset auth DNSSEC loop-detect no-inotify May 15 07:43:43 cora dnsmasq[17417]: reading /etc/resolv.conf May 15 07:43:43 cora dnsmasq[17417]: ignoring nameserver 127.0.0.1 - local interface May 15 07:43:43 cora dnsmasq[17417]: using nameserver 192.168.0.1#53 May 15 07:43:43 cora dnsmasq[17417]: read /etc/hosts - 7 addresses May 15 07:43:44 cora dnsmasq[17417]: read /etc/hosts - 0 addresses May 15 07:43:44 cora dnsmasq[17417]: exiting on receipt of SIGTERM May 15 07:43:45 cora dnsmasq[32840]: started, version 2.76 cachesize 10000 May 15 07:43:45 cora dnsmasq[32840]: compile time options: IPv6 GNU-getopt no-DBus i18n IDN DHCP DHCPv6 no-Lua TFTP no-conntrack ipset auth DNSSEC loop-detect no-inotify May 15 07:43:45 cora dnsmasq[32840]: reading /etc/resolv.conf May 15 07:43:45 cora dnsmasq[32840]: ignoring nameserver 127.0.0.1 - local interface May 15 07:43:45 cora dnsmasq[32840]: using nameserver 192.168.0.1#53 May 15 07:43:45 cora dnsmasq[32840]: read /etc/hosts - 7 addresses May 15 07:43:45 cora dnsmasq[32840]: read /etc/hosts - 7 addresses Kind Regards, Stefan Baur _______________________________________________ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
