I've tried to add the dot, and yes, that stops sending the another query. That's easy to handle when you actually send a ping to an invalid domain, or something like that. But what about all the other applications that send many DNS requests and some of the domains simply doesn't exist?
Look at the DNS stats: dnsmasq[1582]: time 1452266531 dnsmasq[1582]: cache size 10000, 0/2811 cache insertions re-used unexpired cache entries. dnsmasq[1582]: queries forwarded 3205, queries answered locally 4028 dnsmasq[1582]: queries for authoritative zones 0 dnsmasq[1582]: server 192.168.1.1#53: queries sent 363, retried or failed 0 dnsmasq[1582]: server 208.67.222.222#53: queries sent 2, retried or failed 0 dnsmasq[1582]: server 127.0.2.1#5353: queries sent 2840, retried or failed 18 Most of the 363 queries that were sent to the local network router are those with "mhouse.lh" appended to the invalid domains, and not hostname.mhouse.lh . I'm just trying to eliminate the queries. Is there anything I can do about it, except removing the "search" line from the /etc/resolv.conf file? > in one of my other lives we learned that if you don't also want the local > domain to be searched, you must add the trailing dot to signify that that is > the end of the domain and no additional searches should be done... we see > this with all manner of DNS clients... > > just tossing that out there... maybe it will help? > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJWj9VxAAoJEM0EaBB3G2UgQLwQAMoAYAsoPxCXCWAehaRh0TP8 m7zgYPFtfmtpYiSp7RI3jdz5FZiGnFCAYg2bREgLOPBZFnMmEVZ+E/tecTZMseGv pybcqIc4g3g3ld1ToqkjprUJP2dcIJFgt5UVqqyFZRt+/l5RbHTfRvXunTTzu2p8 XQBd1iRaGGZ6Iu5NqYYkbFaVrgTCM75K0CjHWvmWw4mWrDKLyQ6Xhzn+sJz7hMxb hAuaxrqms/r176xjPUQEiTpmoLDgZiS+rhZdULhaSXeY4ysDwUd5QKrLcGYuvLhd DYLPHIYhRR/0vWNxqNQXRctRYlHtT8hoWdF1TNOp/L3I4SR8wnoMNZRtSjJ1O19i LnAivgOGTpF/R0X550raV0+NULKmWOKYAdFGMawDPk1kv2aZG0iKhe/6/pVyQ1cg fqEN8aTvCKD8ibBmKBZ+R+yiPwLC3prHFfnQdTJc0v4RUNTklHShRNGP9sfUS6ck XcEXBR49oTZ6nFDQLnjb011w1LxJMY+gWPuMMZirel9QeVG4DWhBFJvIJvGOd2Cy hTZSvEi0k1Yz5GytoXaa1VOm+lFr8WzHVuW8/14xm/aWvWdRadx2tF/YtTWG47oY wKSG6VP3mShx59MdLdzqviTAMFOEuOUdNteNjliPFSnsEq8A5r22St+YA1OjfTvd W3k8andMRMjtpq81BIWt =3iL5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
