Package: dnsmasq Version: 2.22-1 Severity: important
I'm using dnsmasq with resolvconf and pppoe with 'usepeerdns' option set for pppd.
At boot time since dnsmasq is started before pppd gets DNS from ISP ('usepeerdns' option) when it reads /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf the file is empty. That way dnsmasq is not usable at all nor it is updated when, just a few seconds later, pppd gets its DNS servers from ISP and
resolvconf appends them to /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf.
Restarting dnsmasq fixes the problem, but documentation suggests that
kind of configuration should work 'out of the box'.
Do you run an NTP client as part of the start sequence? Dnsmasq checks the modification time of the resolv.conf file and re-reads the file when the modification time changes. It's possible that an NTP client warping the clock could confuse this.
Cheers,
Simon.
