The IPV6 was not my issue (or might have been secondary). Even with "Ignore" my dnsmasq services are not responding to DHCP requests. Things look good from the process output (which shows flags, etc for dnsmasq) but no joy when inspecting the wire for DHCP request/response. A separate issue in any event.
I did note that when I had IPV6 enabled (set to automatic) that dnsmasq seemed to function and support it based on the syslog output, so perhaps the lack of IPV6 support has been addressed in 12.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/857294 Title: Creating hotspot leads to endless connect/disconnect loop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/857294/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
