See my blog, http://sfxpt.wordpress.com/2011/02/06/providing-dhcp-and-dns-services- with-dnsmasq/#Test_Log " Dnsmasq doesn’t return results for machines until after its served out an address. So we need to make a DHCP/DNS request. The best method is using virtual machines like kvm etc, with a Live CD. FYI, here is how I start my kvm virtual machines using Grml Live CD: qemu-system-x86_64 -smp 2 -m 1024 -usbdevice tablet -net nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:0:00:01,model=virtio -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no,downscript=no -k en-us -vga std -drive media=disk,if=virtio,cache=writeback,file=hda -drive media=cdrom,file=grml64-medium_2010.12.iso -boot d Ref: http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/ Simple_shell_script_to_manage_your_virtual_machine_with_bridged_networking " Also ref: Qemu + KVM is the future of open source virtualization http://www.turnkeylinux.org/blog/qemu-kvm-rules Manually setup KVM public bridge http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/blog/sfxpt-393704/manually-setup- kvm-public-bridge-3107/ -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
