My home network recently suffered 5 hours of downtime because the dnsmasq 
server crashed and took out my DNS and DHCP service.

Is it possible to run a backup instance of dnsmasq on a different server so 
this wouldn't happen again?

How would I configure this?

I can (and do) have two dnsmasq/DNS servers (with identical /etc/hosts files).  
That works fine.  But when I try to have two dnsmasq/DHCP servers (with 
identical /etc/ethers files) things get confused and some clients go for long 
periods without working network attachment.

Thanks!
Rick
