[Dnsmasq-discuss] Bug (sort-of): New link for dhcp-authoritative at ISC
The ISC has moved the explanation of an authoritative DHCP server, so the link in the sample configuration file is stale. The explanation is now located here: https://www.isc.org/files/auth.html Thanks much for dnsmasq!
[Dnsmasq-discuss] Can one produce a list of IP's assigned by DHCP
other than by perusing the log? I am trying to research a situation in which it appears (sic) that dnsmasq assigns an address and then when asked if it exists answers it does not. My newbie status means I could have any of this wrong... TIA Bernard Higonnet
Re: [Dnsmasq-discuss] Can one produce a list of IP's assigned by DHCP
if im not mistaken, you can pass a SIGUSR1 signal to the dnsmasq process... it should send what's inside to the log... Check here: http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/setup.html under Other configuration details: Sending SIGUSR1 (killall -10 dnsmasq) to the dnsmasq process will cause to to write cache usage statisticss to the log, typically /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages. 2010/12/20 Bernard T.

For all of my installations, the list of current leases is stored at: /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases Thank You, Justin McAteer On Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 3:59 PM, Santiago Zarate santi...@zarate.net.ve wrote: if im not mistaken, you can pass a SIGUSR1 signal to the dnsmasq process... it should send what's inside to the log...

Re: [Dnsmasq-discuss] Can one produce a list of IP's assigned by DHCP
If you are interested I have a script that parses the configs, finds all the hosts files being used and parsed the leases file then spits out a hosts file format file of everything dnsmasq is resolving On Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 3:44 PM, Justin McAteer jus...@jmcateer.com wrote: For all of my installations, the list of current leases is stored at: /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases Thank You, Justin McAteer On Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 3:59 PM, Santiago Zarate santi...@zarate.net.ve wrote: if im not mistaken, you can pass a SIGUSR1 signal to the dnsmasq process... it should send what's inside to the log...

Re: [Dnsmasq-discuss] Can one produce a list of IP's assigned by DHCP
Well, regardless, enjoy my script, we use it to make a hosts file that can be distributed to other dnsmasq servers of for a kind of replication technique. It does what we want it to, you may have to change line 24 to point to the correct leases file On Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 5:14 PM, Bernard T.

[Dnsmasq-discuss] dnsmasq has issued a lease, but doesn't seem to know about it!??
Hello, I have a machine, Zazalight, which has requested and received a lease, as evidenced by the following line in dnsmasq.leases: === moto in the following is the machine running dnsmasq moto# cat /var/db/dnsmasq.leases 1292919092 00:16:d3:3b:4f:15 192.168.3.76 Zazalight 01:00:16:d3:3b:4f:15 moto# host -v 192.168.3.76 moto Trying 76.3.168.192.in-addr.arpa Using domain server: Name: moto Address: 192.168.3.113#53 Aliases: Host 76.3.168.192.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) Received 43 bytes from 192.168.3.113#53 in 2 ms === I fear that I've done something wrong, forgotten some option, which is so simple it's beyond dumb.
