I have resolvconf installed and used. Though there's also a ppp bug that triggers up-ip.d scripts before it's time, the connection above got it right at least (a rare case, this is random). Resolvconf updates ppp0 just a bit before ddclient. Which in turns triggers dnsmasq update script. I don't know how it was working in sarge (it *did* work!), but looking at /etc/resolvconf/update.d/dnsmasq I don't see any kill-HUP like thing. It looks like dnsmasq is doing periodic polling (updates nearly 30s after connection), which seems nonsense to me. At least during other tries I have a message "no servers found in /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf, will retry" which is understandable (due to the ppp bug). What is needed IMO: resolv.conf reloading must be done when requested, i.e. when resolvconf requests it. If this requires no-poll in the config file and sending a HUP signal to the process, then this must be the default. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages dnsmasq depends on: ii adduser 3.99 Add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 0.94-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii netbase 4.27 Basic TCP/IP networking system dnsmasq recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Hope this helps, Fabien. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
