@@ -284,6 +284,22 @@ A: Yes, new releases of dnsmasq are always announced through
|
||||
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.
