Hi Simon,
I spent some more time trying to understand what my problem was, and
it turns out the 'bridged networking' in Virtual Box had been broken
at some point. I converted both the MacOS X and Windows XP virtual
machines to use NAT networking and they can both make DNS requests
perfectly well,
I am already using the no-resolv option and the ls -la /proc//fd gives me
only sockets and pipes apart from the log and lease files.
Not sure what is waking up the disks then. Maybe the NAS is not smart enough to
know that dnsmasq accesses the files on the USB mount and just wakes up the
disks
Hi all,
I got to the reason for this not to work. My DHCP server is in a VLAN
that filters DHCP packs that would give IP addresses outside the defined
limits, there was nothing really wrong with the configuration.
Thanks,
