freshmeat.net, and they allow you to subcribe to email alerts when
new versions of particular projects are released.
Q: What does the dhcp-authoritative option do?
A: See http://www.isc.org/index.pl?/sw/dhcp/authoritative.php - that's
for the ISC daemon, but the same applies to dnsmasq.
Q: Why does my Gentoo box pause for a minute before getting a new
lease?
A: Because when a Gentoo box shuts down, it releases its lease with
the server but remembers it on the client; this seems to be a
Gentoo-specific patch to dhcpcd. On restart it tries to renew
a lease which is long gone, as far as dnsmasq is concerned, and
dnsmasq ignores it until is times out and restarts the process.
To fix this, set the dhcp-authoritative flag in dnsmasq.
