I have dnsmasq working quite happily on a Ubuntu Server 9.10 system
providing dns for my small SoHo network.
I have just noticed however that if I ask for the address of a
non-existent name dnsmasq returns the name of one of my hosting
service's machines. It always returns the same address for
HS,
The phone will have to request option 120 from the server or DNSMasq
will not send the option. Alternatively, you may use dhcp-option-force
to have the server send the option whether the client requests it or
not.
Thank You,

It looks like your provider has set up a wildcard A record, which is
similar to DNS hijacking as a helpful feature to users who miskey a
domain name. It's not isolated to you:
mugenshi:etc x10$ host ghijk.isbd.net
ghijk.isbd.net has address 195.74.61.93
ghijk.isbd.net mail is handled by 10
I have a local dnsmasq and another one connected via VPN. The local
names and DHCP'ed IP addresses resolve at each place. Each is set up
to refer to the other's forward and reverse zone. It seems to work
fully going one way, but only for the forward zone from the other.
