dnsmasq configuration
« on: May 15, 2011, 06:14:49 AM »
Hello ,

It seems that now dnsmasq expects dnsmasq.conf to be in /etc instead of in /usr/local/etc (as before and as stated in the docs).  This is fine by me (consistent with the authors documentation), but it would ease things a bit if it were also specified in the TCE - docs :-)

For me it would be better to follow the tc convention of putting things under /usr/local where possible.

Hi,

 The dnsmasq.conf.example is in /usr/local/etc/ by default. However it's true that dnsmasq is searching for /etc/dnsmasq.conf by default.
 You can use the -C option to spectify your config file.

 For example: dnsmasq -C /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf
