if I add the following line to 'resolv.conf' as the first line then I can ping computers on the LAN by their hostname: "nameserver 127.0.0.1" but if that line isnt there, than I can only ping them by their IP number. My problem arrives when I disconnect and connect to my ADSL ISP. Since I use PPPOE I must type this to connect to my internet: "pon dsl-provider" but then the 'resolv.conf' gets overwritten by the 2 DNS servers of my ISP. And since the line 'nameserver 127.0.0.1' is no more in 'resolv.conf' the DNS resolution doesnt work anymore. How can I fix this??
ps. Am using DNSMASQ 2.25 and I've set up my PPPOE ADSL connection with PPPOECONF
