Hi, I have a use case where I'd like to log queries (--log-queries) and disable negative caching (--no-negcache). One issue I found is that when using --no-negcache, dnsmasq no longer logs NXDomain responses. Digging through the code, it looks like as part of the dns cache insertion we will log the response of a query. As such if the cache insertion is never executed for negative responses (i.e --no-negcache), then the response is not logged. Is this the intended behavior/Can this functionality be added?
I would like to have the NXDOMAIN in the logs as I would like to differentiate between NXDOMAIN responses and failing to receive a response. Without --no-negcache: Sep 28 13:09:36 dnsmasq[73688]: query[A] doesnotexist54321 from 127.0.0.1 Sep 28 13:09:36 dnsmasq[73688]: forwarded doesnotexist54321 to 172.16.153.81 Sep 28 13:09:36 dnsmasq[73688]: reply doesnotexist54321 is NXDOMAIN With --no-negcache: Sep 28 13:10:24 dnsmasq[74398]: query[A] doesnotexist54321 from 127.0.0.1 Sep 28 13:10:24 dnsmasq[74398]: forwarded doesnotexist54321 to 172.16.153.81 Thanks, Nick
