My desktop/server runs as a web server, it serves the domain zbmc.eu.
It's set up so that local client requests for web pages from zbmc.eu go
'out and back' as it were, this way I can be more certain that web pages
that work locally also work when accessed from outside.

I run a small SoHo network behind a NAT router, all pretty conventional,
nearly all the machines run either Ubuntu Server 10.04 or Xubuntu 10.04.
I run dnsmasq on one of the server machines (called dps - for DNS and

I have a dnsmasq.conf file with the following at the end:-
dhcp-host=chris,192.168.1.4
How do I get 192.168.1.4 to have some other names as well (for apache2
virtual hosting)?

I have dnsmasq working quite happily on a Ubuntu Server 9.10 system
providing dns for my small SoHo network.
I have just noticed however that if I ask for the address of a
non-existent name dnsmasq returns the name of one of my hosting
service's machines. It always returns the same address for an
I have just moved my dnsmasq server from my desktop machine to a much
lower powered machine so I can turn my desktop off and save some
electricity.
The new machine is called 'server' (original eh!) and has a static
address of 192.168.1.2. It had a totally unmodified installation of
Ubuntu Server
I just noticed that ubuntu says:-
Suggested packages:
resolvconf
when I install dnsmasq. So, should I install resolvconf and will it
do me any good?

Can dnsmasq provide an alternative name for a client?
This is going on from my problem with a system that insists on calling
itself garage.local when I want it to be called garage.
Is there a way that I can tell dnsmasq that garage.local is also
garage so that requests for the address of garage w

I'm pretty sure dnsmasq can do what I want but I'd just like to
confirm the details of how to do it.
I want dnsmasq to set default routes for DHCP clients, so I need to
use --dhcp-option, so far so good. However the extra bit I'm not
quite clear about is that I want to set different default route

Oh dear, "udnerstand", "losts&quo
I run a fairly default version of dnsmasq on my xubuntu 9.04 Linux box
so that I don't have to maintain losts of network (or hosts)

I have just moved fully to using dnsmasq on my xubuntu 8.10 system,
it's made things much simpler than they were. I have removed all my
manually added entries for static IP hosts on the LAN from /etc/hosts
and I've "un static IP'ed" them - dnsmasq does it all for me.
However I have one issue, I h
