Hi, Have set up my linux box to do ip masquerading for a few XP boxes on my network. I am using dhcp and dnsmasq to serve all the client machines. The problem I am having is the XP boxes can resolve external ips and hostnames from dhcp registerd clients but hosts listed in /etc/hosts on the nameserver/gateway box will not resolve. Syslog shows: dnsmasq[15343]: reading /etc/hosts on startup and if I dump the dnsmasq cache using a SIGUSR1 with the log-queries option on it shows the hosts from /etc/hosts listed. Anyone have any idea why the xp boxes can't resolve these ?
