default config file, when you start dnsmasq by hand, that's the one it
finds.

The default configuration of dnsmasq is to act as a caching proxy server
(this behavior of dnsmasq has existed before dhcp support). There are a
few reasons the proxying could fail, chief among them being firewall
rules. If that isn't the problem, increasing the logging detail may give

Hi,
Richard,

nameserver entries in resolv.conf to the clients. Thank you for correcting me.
But, my clients are not resoving the names with this configuration. It is

dnsmasq.conf is pointing to correct resolv file using "resolv-file
