So here is my DNSMASQ problem. I'm running to VirtualBox Ubuntu 16.04 servers on two seperate 2011 mac mini servers (macos High Sierra).
That's your first problem, unmaintained obsolete OS and likewise dnsmasq. 18.04 which is also dying shipped dnsmasq 2.79. That's long gone. Likely that also affects your web server. Ubuntu maintain a very very small fraction of available packages for five years -- only the "main" series. But dnsmasq is in Ubuntu's "universe" series, where "supported" is promising too much. With some luck, you may receive updates for a few months. I've left Ubuntu behind because usually bug reports against packages would expire for my reports. Upgrade.
Each of the two VirtualBox Ubuntu servers runs a LAMP website (Drupal based) and a DNSMASQ dns server. The network is controlled by a Fritz!Box 7590. In the configuration the two different DNSMASQ servers are listed instead of the standard provider DNS.
So far so good. This setup seemed to have worked for hals a year. Then recently I had to restore one of the VirtualBox servers. And now it only works somewhat. In short:
Check if the ip addresses still work, and if the MAC addresses in your router changed in the VBox re-setup. Other than that, nobody will be able to help you on your software museum. Update.
