There are no more log entries than started, version 2.27 cachesize 150 compile time options: IPv6 GNU-getopt RTNetlink ISC-leasefile no-DBus no-I18N DHCP, IP range 10.0.0.100 -- 10.0.0.254, lease time 12h using local addresses only for domain lan read /etc/hosts - 2 addresses read /etc/myhosts - 1 addresses failed to read /etc/ethers:No such file or directory reading /etc/resolv.conf using nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx#53 using nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx#53 using local addresses only for domain lan after startup and query[A] xxx from ... forwarded xxx to ... reply xxx is ... if it works and later query[A] xxx from ... query[A] xxx.lan from ... config xxx.lan is <NXDOMAIN>-IPv4 if it doesn't work. After touching /etc/resolv.conf it shows reading /etc/resolv.conf using nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx#53 using nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx#53 using local addresses only for domain lan The content of dnmasq.conf: local=/lan/ domain=lan domain-needed bogus-priv filterwin2k localise-queries expand-hosts addn-hosts=/etc/myhosts dhcp-authoritative dhcp-range=10.0.0.100,10.0.0.254,255.255.255.0,12h dhcp-leasefile=/tmp/dhcp.leases read-ethers Can this problem happen because the forwarders are reachable only over a sometimes lossy wireless link? Does dnsmasq "forget" forever its forwarders when there is a timeout because of packet loss? Thanks. Holger
