In my case the Pi is my only Unix box, so I don't have anything else I can run dnsmasq on. I can understand you not wanting to gain yet another system to adminster. I even avoided needing another power supply, I power the Pi from the USB socket on my Apple Airport Extreme whicn creates my wireless network. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Owen Smith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42371 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103435 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
