Hello, Let me explain the scenario:
- I have a number of computers acquiring IP-address by DHCP and I have dnsmasq configured with static leases for specific mac-addresses. - I also have a couple of virtual computers for very specific purposes that I run from a live Linux distro from a USB drive. Physically I can run them on any of my 'physical' computers. Now the problem and questions: - I configured the virtual-usb computers to present themselves with specific hostnames. - I configured dnsmasq to assign an ip-address based on the hostname, and it works fine ... *IF AND ONLY IF* I don't have a specific mac-address based dhsp-host entry. Apparently when I have more than one dhcp-host entries matching the DHCP request, the mac-addr based one is the preferred one. I've tried configuring it in different order but always the mac-addr based is the chosen one. So, my question: is there any way to set up the precedence of the dhcp-host entry in case more than one match the DHCP request? Thanks a lot in advance. Jesus M
