==Overview==
 
[[category:system files]]This is a sample of [[dnsmasq.conf]], mainly included because of all the comments. I'm stripping all the comments out of my actual file so I can see which lines are actually in use. This is a fairly basic configuration which uses [[/etc/hosts]] as well as having additional local-machinename definitions in a file called /etc/dnsmasqhosts.

# Configuration file for [[dnsmasq]].
 
#
 
# Format is one option per line, legal options are the same
 
# as the long options legal on the command line. See
 
# "/usr/sbin/dnsmasq --help" or "man 8 dnsmasq" for details.
 
 
# The following two options make you a better netizen, since they
 
# tell dnsmasq to filter out queries which the public DNS cannot
 
# answer, and which load the servers (especially the root servers)
 
# uneccessarily. If you have a dial-on-demand link they also stop
 
# these requests from bringing up the link uneccessarily.
 
 
# Never forward plain names (without a dot or domain part)
 
domain-needed
 
# Never forward addresses in the non-routed address spaces.
 
bogus-priv
 
 
 
# Uncomment this to filter useless windows-originated DNS requests
 
# which can trigger dial-on-demand links needlessly.
 
# Note that (amongst other things) this blocks all SRV requests,
 
# so don't use it if you use eg Kerberos.
 
# This option only affects forwarding, SRV records originating for
 
# dnsmasq (via srv-host= lines) are not suppressed by it.
 
#filterwin2k
 
 
# Change this line if you want dns to get its upstream servers from
 
# somewhere other that /etc/[[resolv.conf]]
 
#resolv-file=
 
resolv-file=/etc/dnsmasqupstreamservers
 
 
# By  default,  dnsmasq  will  send queries to any of the upstream
 
# servers it knows about and tries to favour servers to are  known
 
# to  be  up.  Uncommenting this forces dnsmasq to try each query
 
# with  each  server  strictly  in  the  order  they  appear  in
 
# /etc/resolv.conf
 
#strict-order
 
 
# If you don't want dnsmasq to read /etc/resolv.conf or any other
 
# file, getting its servers from this file instead (see below), then
 
# uncomment this
 
#no-resolv
 
 
# If you don't want dnsmasq to poll /etc/resolv.conf or other resolv
 
# files for changes and re-read them then uncomment this.
 
#no-poll
 
 
# Add other name servers here, with domain specs if they are for
 
# non-public domains.
 
#server=/localnet/192.168.0.1
 
#server=166.70.63.3
 
 
# Add local-only domains here, queries in these domains are answered
 
# from /etc/hosts or DHCP only.
 
#local=/localnet/
 
 
# Add domains which you want to force to an IP address here.
 
# The example below send any host in doubleclick.net to a local
 
# webserver.
 
#address=/doubleclick.net/127.0.0.1
 
 
# If you want dnsmasq to change uid and gid to something other
 
# than the default, edit the following lines.
 
#user=
 
#group=
 
 
# If you want dnsmasq to listen for DHCP and DNS requests only on
 
# specified interfaces (and the loopback) give the name of the
 
# interface (eg eth0) here.
 
# Repeat the line for more than one interface.
 
#interface=
 
# Or you can specify which interface _not_ to listen on
 
#except-interface=
 
# Or which to listen on by address (remember to include 127.0.0.1 if
 
# you use this.)
 
#listen-address=
 
# If you want dnsmasq to provide only DNS service on an interface,
 
# configure it as shown above, and then use the following line to
 
# disable DHCP on it.
 
#no-dhcp-interface=
 
 
# On systems which support it, dnsmasq binds the wildcard address,
 
# even when it is listening on only some interfaces. It then discards
 
# requests that it shouldn't reply to. This has the advantage of
 
# working even when interfaces come and go and change address. If you
 
# want dnsmasq to really bind only the interfaces it is listening on,
 
# uncomment this option. About the only time you may need this is when
 
# running another nameserver on the same machine.
 
#bind-interfaces
 
 
# If you don't want dnsmasq to read /etc/hosts, uncomment the
 
# following line.
 
#no-hosts
 
# or if you want it to read another file, as well as /etc/hosts, use
 
# this.
 
#addn-hosts=/etc/banner_add_hosts
 
addn-hosts=/etc/dnsmasqhosts
 
 
# Set this (and domain: see below) if you want to have a domain
 
# automatically added to simple names in a hosts-file.
 
#expand-hosts
 
 
# Set the domain for dnsmasq. this is optional, but if it is set, it
 
# does the following things.
 
# 1) Allows DHCP hosts to have fully qualified domain names, as long
 
#    as the domain part matches this setting.
 
# 2) Sets the "domain" DHCP option thereby potentially setting the
 
#    domain of all systems configured by DHCP
 
# 3) Provides the domain part for "expand-hosts"
 
#domain=thekelleys.org.uk
 
 
# Uncomment this to enable the integrated DHCP server, you need
 
# to supply the range of addresses available for lease and optionally
 
# a lease time. If you have more than one network, you will need to
 
# repeat this for each network on which you want to supply DHCP
 
# service.

# This is an example of a DHCP range where the netmask is given. This
 
# is needed for networks we reach the dnsmasq DHCP server via a relay
 
# agent. If you don't know what a DHCP relay agent is, you probably
 
# don't need to worry about this.

# Set the DHCP server to authoritative mode. In this mode it will barge in
 
# and take over the lease for any client which broadcasts on the network,
 
# whether it has a record of the lease or not. This avoids long timeouts
 
# when a machine wakes up on a new network. DO NOT enable this if there's
 
# the slighest chance that you might end up accidentally configuring a DHCP
 
# server for your campus/company accidentally. The ISC server uses the same

# If you want dnsmasq to detect attempts by Verisign to send queries

#bogus-nxdomain=64.94.110.11
 
 
# If you want to fix up DNS results from upstream servers, use the

# This alias makes a result of 1.2.3.4 appear as 5.6.7.8

# Change these lines if you want dnsmasq to serve MX records.

# Change the following lines if you want dnsmasq to serve SRV
 
# records.  These are useful if you want to serve ldap requests for

# See RFC 2782.
 
# You may add multiple srv-host lines.
 
# The fields are <name>,<target>,<port>,<priority>,<weight>
 
# If the domain part if missing from the name (so that is just has the
 
# service and protocol sections) then the domain given by the domain=
 
# config option is used. (Note that expand-hosts does not need to be
 
# set for this to work.)
