Hi,
I have a strange problem with dnsmasq 2.33 running on OpenWRT White-russian.
Normal resolution seems to work, but when a client does an NS query for a
TLD, such as .se or .ch, it returns NXDOMAIN:
Dec 19 19:26:35 (none) kern.debug dnsmasq[3275]: query[NS] se from
172.16.10.4
Dec 19 19:26:35 (none) kern.debug dnsmasq[3275]: config se is <NXDOMAIN>
Here are relevant parts of dnsmasq.conf:
<snip>
domain-needed
From dnsmasq(8)
-D, --domain-needed
Tells dnsmasq to never forward queries for plain names, without
dots or domain parts, to upstream nameservers. If the name is
not known from /etc/hosts or DHCP then a "not found" answer is
returned.
"abc.se" doesn't get caught be this test, but "se" does, since it has no
dots.
That explains the behaviour, but it's probably not correct: it may be
better for queries for NS records to be exempted.
What does the team think?
Simon.
