> Btw please don't backport the current solution to Precise In comment #110 MTL said that backporting the fix to Precise *is* planned.
Quantal includes dnsmasq 2.63 which has the new "bind-dynamic" option. In bind-dynamic mode dnsmasq works as it does in bind-interfaces mode but also updates its list of listen addresses whenever network interfaces are configured and deconfigured. It appears to work well. In bind-dynamic mode, as in bind-interfaces mode, standalone dnsmasq is compatible with NM-dnsmasq listening at 127.0.1.1. I would suggest therefore that if the switch from 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.1.1 for NM-dnsmasq is backported to Precise then dnsmasq 2.63 should simultaneously be backported to Precise and dnsmasq should be forced into bind-dynamic mode rather than into bind-interfaces mode. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959037 Title: NM-controlled dnsmasq prevents other DNS servers from starting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/djbdns/+bug/959037/+subscriptions -- 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
