| 7 | Hello, |
| 8 | |
| 9 | I recently needed a feature in dnsmasq for a very bizarre situation. I |
| 10 | placed a list of name servers in a special resolve file and told dnsmasq |
| 11 | to use that. But I wanted it to try requests in order and treat NXDOMAIN |
| 12 | requests as a failed tcp connection. I wrote the feature into dnsmasq |
| 13 | and it seems to work. I prepared a patch in the event that others might |
| 14 | find it useful as well. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Thanks and keep up the good work. |
