But that's a really nasty hack. Dnsmasq is sending the query to the internal DNS via UDP, which is unreliable, so when a UDP packet is lost, you'll get a random wrong answer to a DNS query that should have been answered by the internal DNS server. Cheers, Simon. On 21/02/18 13:40, Karol August

I'll take a guess that you have --strict-order in your config. If so, remove it and all will be well. Cheers, Simon. On 21/02/18 08:19, meht...@protonmail.com wrote: > Hello, > is it possible for dnsmasq to prioritize upstream DNS servers based on > their availability? > I have 2 servers in my

[Dnsmasq-discuss] priority of upstream servers
