I understand dnsmasq is an forwarding dns server and I was
wondering if there is a way to configure it to do dns lookups
using it own IP external address instead of the server forwarders,
maybe just for URIBL lookups ...
afaik there isn't. iterative queries aren't built into dnsmasq.
dns-forward-max=256
server=208.67.222.222
server=208.67.220.220
What are other dnsmasq users doing to get working URIBL and not
use a forwarder, do you run a caching DNS on the same server and
use server=localhost?

either don't use dnsmasq

or point dnsmasq to that server

dnsmasq has lots of nice features like tftp, tftp-mtu, srv-host,

I guess that dnsmasq is here to provide lightweight server for local
network.
I also guess you can still provide patch to do full resolution instead of
forwarding.
however dnsmasq currently does not do that.
I would like to keep using dnsmasq but I would also like my URIBL
lookups to work.
Wondering how other users have solved this issue in there infrastructure.
by using real iterative (non-forwarding) resolver I guess.
