dnsmasq

Hi - Been running merlin on my Asus routers for a few years but lately I have come across an issue that I cannot find the root. At random times through out the week dnsmasq-dhcp would stop issuing IP addresses and I can only connect on the LAN with static IP (as I am this second). I initially...

So I am using a Pi-Hole device with my Asus Router to block ads network wide. I also use a VPN on my Asus router with Selective Routing so that only my NAS uses the VPN. When my NAS is connected via VPN from router, certain apps on the device will not function because Pi-Hole will prevent DNS...

Ive installed ASUS-WRT Merlin version 384 and am now experiencing the following error constantly in my routers system log: eb 21 07:14:39 dnsmasq[5847]: bad IPv6 address at line 28 of /etc/dnsmasq.conf Feb 21 07:14:39 dnsmasq[5847]: FAILED to start up Feb 21 07:15:09 rc_service: watchdog...

Hi all, I'm really close to getting PXE boot server working on my RT-AC88U but need to be able to add further customization options to dnsmasq. I think Merlin's ability to add custom options would work, but I really don't want to install a custom firmware just to add less than a half a dozen...

I fold. I need some help. I'm trying to configure a CNAME on my router to use with Nginx on my home server, so that, depending on which name is used to access it, Nginx will direct to a different site. I've got this entry in /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add cname=multicraft,olympus Whereas...

1) Is it possible to view the configuration of dnsmasq after /jffs/scripts/dnsmasq.postconf runs ? 2) What is wrong with the following dnsmasq.postconf script ? Running this script from the command line returns ... ./dnsmasq.postconf: line 9: : No such file or directory #!/opt/bin/bash...

I have an ASUS RT-AC5300 router running the latest Merlin fw for it. I would like to use a custom dnsmasq config for it to route specific traffic to certain dns ip's. I have a link to a sample config here...

I was trying to modify my dnsmasq.conf (I am using ipv6) using the dnsmasq.postconf script method described in the wiki. I am trying to change from: dhcp-range=lan,::1000,::2000,constructor:br0,86400 to: (adding ra-names) dhcp-range=lan,::1000,::2000,constructor:br0,ra-names,86400 Now I...

Hello, I believe asusWRT is still running on dnsmasq 2.73 rc release. I am trying to boot pxe from efi, but according the internet this is broken on this release (2.73) A lot has been fixed in the current stable(?) dnsmasq 2.76 release. Is there a way to update dnsmasq on my router...

I have been ripping my hair out the last two days trying to get tftp in dnsmasq working. Now after all that time it seems there is some kind of bug in the service. Setting up the server setting 'tftp-root=/jffs/tftpboot' in '/jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add' results in the 'dnsmasq-tftp: TFTP...

Hi all, This is my first post, so please bear with me if this question has been asked before. (I was not able to find it asked within the last 5 years so I thought I would start fresh.) I recently updated my firmware from the miserable factory firmware for my ASUS RT-AC87U (RT-AC87R-50C8) with...

Hi. I've got an ASUS RT-AC68U with merlin 380.65. I've configured DNSCrypt using Entware. I was using the Cisco Familyshield provider with DNSCrypt, but don't like that they log requests and dont provide DNSsec, plus Youtube always thinks im coming from a neighbouring country, and...

When replacing DNSMasq DNS with Unbound, how do you disable DNSMasq from providing DNS support ?

Is there an easy way to view the contents of the dnsmasq cache? The only thing I've found so far is that dnsmasq can be started with the `--log-queries` option, and then sent SIGUSR1 to dump the cache to syslog. Do I need to use a services-start user script to start dnsmasq with this option...

Not sure where else to put this, but this seems as good place as any based on active 3rd party developers and script writers... As part of a project, we ran into an odd problem with one of our testers - one of our tasks does mDNS for service and node discovery within the local subnets - and his...

I got 2 asus routers a AC-3100( Router1 ) and a AC-66U ( Router2 ) connected via a IPsec VPN (Other device). Router1 = 192.168.1.1/24 local domain : router1net Router2 = 192.168.0.1/24 local domain : router2net If I add "server=/router2net/192.168.0.1" to my Router1 dnsmasq config from a...

Greetings! Sorry to ask rudimentary questions, I am just hoping someone will help me out. I recently had to perform a factory reset on my RT-AC56U after my nephew monkeyed around with it. Now, in my system logs, I keep seeing all my ethernet ports entering "promiscuous mode" and "forwarding...

Was there some change recently on where dnsmasq can read extra host files from? I could have sworn the script I use to add two more host files to the dnsmasq config were working before. The two host files reside in a folder on the /jffs/ partition. But no matter what permissions I put on the...

Hello, I'd tried to look for a solution to my problem... But I'm not able to find it. So, first, sorry if this topic was previously discussed. My setup: ASUS Router RT-AC87U Running Merlin 380.59_0 Set up as Wireless router mode (Default) Wired to the fiber cable from my ISP Screen capture...
