Is dnsmasq actually running? If not, you should read the is a question about ppp in the dnsmasq FAQ (http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/FAQ):
Q: Dnsmasq fails to start with an error like this: "dnsmasq: bind failed: Cannot assign requested address". What's the problem? A: This has been seen when a system is bringing up a PPP interface at boot time: by the time dnsmasq start the interface has been created, but not brought up and assigned an address. The easiest solution is to use --interface flags to specify which interfaces dnsmasq should listen on. Since you are unlikely to want dnsmasq to listen on a PPP interface and offer DNS service to the world, the problem is solved. -- dnsmasq doesn't work with pppoe https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289277 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
