Re: [Dnsmasq-discuss] Dnsmasq-discuss Digest, Vol 138, Issue 13

Hi Albert, thank you for replying. I have access to the source code of the 
router and all it's internals.

I can download the source code of dnsmasq, compile and build it for the 
router(not on the router) but I need to run the dnsmasq as a service which I 
can't do on mipsel-linux because it doesn't contain anything equivalent to 
"service". So I'm generating the binary on a ubuntu(16.04 LTS) system and using 
that in the router running mipsel-linux.

On the ubuntu system, when I run dnsmasq with add-mac in the configuration, I'm 
able to see EDNS0 option in the dns query. This is happening only when I 
installed and run dnsmasq from apt-get. When I tried to compile it and run it 
from the same configurations, I'm not able to see the EDNS0 option. Now I'm 
left with two things, one is to install dnsmasq from the apt-get on 
mipsel-linux which is not possible because it does not have apt-get or any 
other package manager and the second option being to compile the source for the 
router.

So for now, I want to compile the dnsmasq source code on my ubuntu system or 
for the router, not from the apt-get, and want the EDNS0 option in the dns 
query.

Ok, so IIUC, you do not have access to the source code of the system
installed on your router, and especially you do not have access to the
source code and build instructions to rebuild your router's dnsmasq.

But you do have access to the router's filesystem, right? So you can
inspect its services scripts and find out what it does and why the
add-mac option is not passed to dnsmasq.

Amicalement,

Hi, thank you for the insight. Actually, I want this implementation on my 
router(which is running mipsel-linux), can't just simply install on it. 
Therefore, I have to run the binary there but I'm not getting the MAC address 
of the connected clients when I add the add-mac option in the conf file.

Hi all,

I want to know about all the changes(internally as in files etc) when 
"service dnsmasq start" is executed. I noticed one change that it edits the 
/etc/resolv.conf. The reason is when I set the add-mac option in 
/etc/dnsmasq.conf and start the dnsmasq service, I'm able to get the EDNS0 
option in a dns query but when I compiled from the source and ran it, the same 
thing doesn't happen.


Thanks & Regards,

Rahul Jain

I believe you are mistaking two things here: the dnsmasq executable on
the one hand, and the operating system use of dnsmasq on the other hand.

The dnsmasq project only provides the dnsmasq executable. It does not
provide the scripts that the "service dnsmasq start" or "service
dnsmasq stop" commands will run.

These scripts are part of the operating system, and may actually vary
from distribution to distribution.

For instance, dnsmasq *never* edits the /etc/resolv.conf file -- this
is a system change which only the system can perform in a consistent
way.

To understand what "service dnsmasq *" does on your system, you should
refer to the documentation of the distribution you are using.
