Maybe I'm missing something, but this way: # host somename.foo-domain returns 192.168.0.42 But I want: # host foo-domain to return 192.168.0.42 Of course i can add: 192.168.0.42 foo-domain.foo-domain foo-domain To /etc/hosts, but it's not what I want. I want to have IP assigned to whole domain not for host with the same name as domain name. Let's imagine that dnsmasq is set as public DNS for somecompany.com domain. I know how to set it up, to respond for every subdomain name-to-ip request (www.somecompany.com, ftp.somecompany.com, etc.), but I don't know how to set it to return IP for somecompmny.com domain itself. -- "Meaning is differential not referential" Kazimierz Pogoda Nordic Consulting & Development Company http://www.ncdc.pl/
