Relevant to my question above: > What would be the best way to implement this, Simon?
is what Simon wrote in #928524 comment #12: --- BEGIN QUOTATION --- I'm wondering about adding a _third_ mode, which is has a desirable mixture of the properties of the current two (--bind-interfaces and NOT --bind-interfaces). Essentially, dnsmasq would bind the addresses of individual interfaces rather than the wildcard address, making it less of a bully for other dnsmasq instances or DNS servers, but it would use netlink to track the creation of new interfaces or the addition of new addresses to existing interfaces, and automatically bind them as required. This mode is inherently Linux-specific, since it needs netlink to work. You could either just use it as the default, or as a less problematic alternative to --bind-interfaces to be dropped into the system dnsmasq by networkmanager. --- END QUOTATION --- -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to 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-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
