Following command would print just that: sed -e '56!d' /etc/dnsmasq.conf I doubt that is about max-ttl option. Are you still using RHEL6 (or derivate) for some reason? I thought every option is supported in more recent versions. I would like to know what option were supported in the old but is not in current version. Please Share.
