> Hi, why does dnsmasq cname require an entry on /etc/hosts?
From the dnsmasq man page:
--cname=<cname>,[<cname>,]<target>[,<TTL>]
Return a CNAME record which indicates that <cname> is really <target>.
There is a significant limitation on the target; it must be a DNS record
which is known to dnsmasq and NOT a DNS record which comes from an
upstream server.
A potential workaround would be to recreate the A/AAAA records for the
CNAME target within dnsmasq.
Of course, that's only viable if the respective IPs are both known and
not subject to change.
