That is very possible. Good suggestion. Does anyone have any suggestion of how I should SIGHUP dnsmasq? I've tried these without much luck:
kill -1 `pidof dnsmasq`; kill -9 `pidof dnsmasq`; kill -HUP `pidof dnsmasq`; kill -SIGHUP `pidof dnsmasq`; /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart; I even put a 5 second sleep after the HUP to try to give it time to start back up. Ideas?
