I am setting up my dnsmasq backup system(s) and have just moved to the

   Host esprimo not found: 5(REFUSED)
   chris$ host C475IP
   C475IP has address 192.168.1.101
   Host C475IP not found: 5(REFUSED)
   chris$

host by default checks for A,AAAA and MX records. apparently your primary nameserver returns REFUSED for AAAA or MX query.

I have checked that I don't have two DNS servers running.  Also if I
stop dnsmasq from listening I get no response.

dig seems to produce a sensible response:-

   chris$ dig esprimo

So what on earth have I misconfigured?

diy sends A query by default.
