Hmm,

I guess I need to retract my initial statement..

I would have to say it was 2.56 which caused the problem.

I have since updated to 2.57 and uncommented my dhcp-host=pcsd-0000 and have no errors.

So I guess its working; will have to check to make sure but..



Second question

If I already have:

dhcp-ignore=#known

would I have to add a second entry:

dhcp-ignore=#known
dhcp-ignore=tag:blacklist

or can I combine them?

dhcp-ignore=#known,tag:blacklist

I was reading through the config and I know I've seen that explained before but just can't seem to find it again to confirm..


Found it dnsmasq.conf.example..

# Never offer DHCP service to a machine whose Ethernet
# address is 11:22:33:44:55:66
#dhcp-host=11:22:33:44:55:66,ignore

# Ignore any clients which are specified in dhcp-host lines
# or /etc/ethers. Equivalent to ISC "deny unknown-clients".
# This relies on the special "known" tag which is set when
# a host is matched.
#dhcp-ignore=tag:!known


Hmm,

Why does my #known do the same thing?  And the example says !known..

(odd..)

and what I used to have was an entry for a *machine name* (not a mac).

dnsmasq would allow that machine name on, and I had a script that would
parse the logs and add that special machine names MAC to the 'allowed list'

with 2.57 (updated from 2.55) it sees that machine name as an error.

What can I do to possibly get that 'feature' back?

dhcp-host=pcsd-00000



Do you mean that 2.57 spits an error when it encounters
dhcp-host=pcsd-00000

in the configuration file? Any particular error message?


second question.

Unrelated to the first one.

If I have a machine pcsd-12345 is there a way that I can *deny* that
machine name?



dhcp-host=pcsd-12345,set:blacklist

dhcp-ignore=tag:blacklist


Cheers,

Simon.

Thanks in advance.
