Redirect all DNS-Requests with dnsmasq
I have following scenario: I have set up an ad-hoc network with wicd on my server, and use dnsmasq as an dhcp- and dns-server. The network works very well, I can connect, get an ip address, and on all clients the nameserver is set to the IP of my server. But I want that all dns request of the clients are resolved to my local server which runs an apache webserver. Is this possible with dnsmasq?
Yes!
I use it this way:
/usr/local/sbin/dnsmasq -z -k -2 -i vlan9 -a 10.6.66.1 \
--address=/\#/10.6.66.1
10.6.66.1
is the IP address it returns.
UPDATE Yes, #
is a wildcard. You can specify multiple with --address
The primary options to use in the conf file for this would be:
address=/#/10.6.66.1
interface=vlan9
