Package: dnsmasq Version: 2.29-1 After dist-upgrading my debian/sid system including the new version of dnsmasq 2.28(!), dnsmasq stops running after offering an IP-address via DHCP. Updating to 2.29 did not solve the problem.
I have one debian/sid-PC which is the internet-gateway via DSL. This host is running dnsmasq. I am using the DNS- and DHCP-function of dnsmasq. A notebook is running Windows2000. When this system is asking for an IP-address, the dnsmasq process disappears. So the windows client never gets the new IP-address. Also dns-resolving stops working on my debian-system, because dnsmasq is no longer present. The last log-output in daemon.log from dnsmasq is: Apr 23 22:46:30 localhost dnsmasq[8777]: DHCPDISCOVER(ethlan) 10.216.15.217 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx Apr 23 22:46:30 localhost dnsmasq[8777]: DHCPOFFER(ethlan) 192.168.1.90 00:08:02:d0:4b:88 (I have xx'ed out the MAC address.) In system or messages log nothing can be seen. Starting dnsmasq again solves the DNS-problems but with the next renewing of the window's IP-address dnsmasq crashes again.
