dnsmask is not designed to be a local recursive resolver: it is a caching forwarder than forwards request to a real recursive resolver and (when it understand things sufficiently) acts as a local cache. If you want something local that handles the resolution process, rather than relying on an external recursive resolver, you should run Bind or Unbound locally, rather than dnsmasq. _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
