Hi, I've set up a very simple net with a dhcp + dns server using dnsmasq.
It works but the server itself cant resolv clients names. Clients do resolv without any problem
my /etc/dnsmasq.conf
------
interface=eth0
dhcp-range=192.168.1.120,192.168.1.150,3m
dhcp-option=3,192.168.1.2
cache-size=50
dhcp-leasefile=/...
log-queries
log-facilities=/...
-----

I dont mean to be unpolite but the shorting system just shows very first lines.

as I said when I ping from the server a clients name it doesnt find it.
with the ip it works fine.
Ive tried a thousand options without any luck
Thanks in advance

Make sure dnsmasq is listening on localhost as well, then modify the server's /etc/resolv.conf to point to nameserver 127.0.0.1.

thanks for the reply but it didnt work
log says "ignoring nameserver 127.0.0.1 local interface"
done lots of googlings for a solution and nothing.
