[snip - useful explanation, thank you]
Ah, now I see how it's working. I have a file in /etc/dnsmasq.d which
contains:-
resolv-file=/run/NetworkManager/no-stub-resolv.conf
... and /run/NetworkManager/no-stub-resolv.conf is:-
# Generated by NetworkManager
search zbmc.eu
nameserver 192.168.1.2
(and I have a fully configured dnsmasq running on 192.168.1.2 with links up
to upstream nameservers)
However this brings me back to where my original question came from, since
there
is no 'nameserver' entry pointing at localhost will dnsmasq cache? Or do I have
to manually add a 'nameserver 127.0.0.1' somewhere?
