I understand your point about the different format of the domain files. But that is not the question. The question is: Why do I need an additional hostnames.txt file for older dnsmasq (old=pre v2.80). Why is a sinlge domains file sufficient for newer dnsmasq versions? _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk https://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
