Hi Tommy & others,

At my gateway I have already installed DNS together with DHCP (Bind isc) 
when a lease is hand out the DHCP will update the DNS as well. (ad-hoc for 
the people who know i'am talking 'bout). Let's say DHCP adds:
host_foo at address 10.0.0.3 than it should not not result in a (external) 
query like this:
Q] host_foo.mydomain.com
A] 10.0.0.3
However, for an internal query this is oke but I want to resolve the 
external query as well, as specified in RFC2694 (DNS_ALG).

I looked at the DNS-masq project and cannot find/see/read if it solve my 
problem. As far as i can understand its a lightweight DNS server that can be 
used in small natted networks, with caching and DNS resolving for the 
internal side only.

Regards,
Andre Kleibeuker
