I have three files in /jffs/configs - profile.add, hosts and dnsmasq.add. Both profile.add and hosts are working as expected, but dnsmasq.add doesn't appear to be doing anything.

How can I diagnose what's wrong? Is there anything likely to be logged anywhere, or can I increase the level of debug?

Change System Log - General Log > Log only messages more urgent than to "All".

Errors will be logged in the syslog, so look there after you restart dnsmasq.
 
The filename needs to be dnsmasq.conf.add
 
That would explain it! :)

I thought I had read somewhere that it was the other way around, someone had used dnsmasq.conf.add and it should be dnsmasq.add but obviously not!

Thank you.
