[Devil-linux-software] [fmII] Dnsmasq 2.15 released (Default branch)

[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '2.15' of
'Dnsmasq' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can
be found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/dnsmasq/

The changes in this release are as follows:
This release fixes confusion between NODATA and NXDOMAIN replies in
the DNS server. It addresses a situation where dnsmasq could return
NXDOMAIN for a query of type AAAA even though queries for the same
domain for A or MX records would succeed. This bug is triggered by a
change in behaviour between Windows XP SP1 and SP2, and has also been
seen with certain mailer configurations. Note that the bug only
occured for domains that were in dnsmasq's local configuration (from
/etc/hosts or DHCP). Domains that were merely cached from upstream
nameservers never triggered the problem. 

Release focus:

Project description:
Dnsmasq is a lightweight, easy to configure DNS forwarder and DHCP
server. It is designed to provide DNS and (optionally) DHCP to a
small network. It can serve the names of local machines which are not
in the global DNS. The DHCP server integrates with the DNS server and
allows machines with DHCP-allocated addresses to appear in the DNS
with names configured either in each host or in a central
configuration file. Dnsmasq supports static and dynamic DHCP leases
and BOOTP for network booting of diskless machines.
