I have dnsmasq running as a caching DNS resolver but not answering DHCP requests. It might not be convenient, but at least it follows the RFC. :) > And what's the limitation you're talking about regarding dnsmasq? dnsmasq will only offer leases within a single IP block on a given NIC. e.g. if you want to offer leases on two /28s through eth0, dnsmasq can't do it. From a quick glance at it's man page, looks like it can do v4 and v6 leases at the same time…
