Deletion of the conf file,log file readability about dnsmasq-qpkg HOT 2 OPEN

Actually I don't have it as the router either, shouldn't need to be at all. I will definitely be taking a look at that. Any chance you could drop your configs here? I will certainly add the css styling, sounds like a real good idea. (Thanks for the fork by the way!)

What are the changes in 4.2.1? Any chance they are working on ipv6 ? They are lacking in that department to be sure.

from dnsmasq-qpkg.

Sorry I've been away for a short while and haven't had the chance to continue my poking around on this. I had a lot of ideas for it, but haven't had the time to work on it.
Since I don't have the need or desire to wrap my head around the syntax for ipv6, I can't tell you for sure. Here's the most recent release notes from qnap. I usually run the betas whenever possible, I'm not super concerned about system failures due to them. But if there's no benefits listed in the changelog, I usually don't do it.

The release numbers listed there denote the actual release date.

I was also going to add a few bits to the log page so it paginates it or maybe only displays X number of lines at time.

But right now, as long as I don't save any config changes, it's been working well as a dhcp server for me, which is primarily what I use it for. The only other bug I encountered was that it refuses to start up whenever I reboot the system no matter if I put it into a startup script or just generally flag it for startup, the QNAP is being stubborn and forces me to manually start it every time.

Oh, is the word 'start' missing from the install script? Should there be a line in the /etc/config/qpkg.conf where is says

Shell = /share/MD0_DATA/.qpkg/dnsmasq/dnsmasq.sh start

Right now it just has the .sh with no follow up command. I was reading something saying the shell command could be used to make sure it's an autostart application.

I'm using a TS-670 PRO, as well in answer to your previous Q.

The config is here:

# this ensures dnsmasq only binds to the interfaces configured
bind-interfaces
# this tells dnsmasq to never pass short names to the upstream DNS servers. If the name is not in the local /etc/hosts file then “not found” will be returned.
domain-needed
# ignore /etc/hosts file
no-hosts

# dont use resolv.conf, use these nameservers instead
no-resolv
