+version 2.57
+ Add patches to allow build under Android.
+
+ Provide our own header for the DNS protocol, rather than
+ relying on arpa/nameser.h. This has proved more or less
+ defective over the years and the final straw is that it's
+ effectively empty on Android.
+
+ Fix regression in 2.56 which caused hex constants in
+ configuration to be rejected if they contain the '*'
+ wildcard.
+
+ Correct wrong casts of arguments to ctype.h functions,
+ isdigit(), isxdigit() etc. Thanks to Matthias Andree for
+ spotting this.
+
+ Allow build with IDN support independently from i18n.
+ IDN support continues to be included automatically
+ when i18n is included.
+ 'make COPTS=-DHAVE_IDN' is the magic incantation.
+
+ Modify check on extraneous command line junk (added in
+ 2.56) so that it doesn't complain about extra _empty_
+ arguments. Otherwise this breaks libvirt.
+
+
+version 2.56
+ Add a patch to allow dnsmasq to get interface names right in a
+ Solaris zone. Thanks to Dj Padzensky for this.
+
+ Improve data-type parsing heuristics so that
+ --dhcp-option=option:domain-search,.
+ treats the value as a string and not an IP address.
+ Thanks to Clemens Fischer for spotting that.
+
+ Add IPv6 support to the TFTP server. Many thanks to Jan
+ 'RedBully' Seiffert for the patches.
+
+ Log DNS queries at level LOG_INFO, rather then
+ LOG_DEBUG. This makes things consistent with DHCP
+ logging. Thanks to Adam Pribyl for spotting the problem.
+
+ Ensure that dnsmasq terminates cleanly when using
+ --syslog-async even if it cannot make a connection to the
+ syslogd.
+
+ Add --add-mac option. This is to support currently
+ experimental DNS filtering facilities. Thanks to Benjamin
+ Petrin for the orignal patch.
+
+ Fix bug which meant that tags were ignored in dhcp-range
+ configuration specifying PXE-proxy service. Thanks to
+ Cristiano Cumer for spotting this.
+
+ Raise an error if there is extra junk, not part of an
+ option, on the command line.
+
+ Flag a couple of log messages in cache.c as coming from
+ the DHCP subsystem. Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the patch.
+
+ Omit timestamps from logs when a) logging to stderr and
+ b) --keep-in-forground is set. The logging facility on the
+ other end of stderr can be assumned to supply them. Thanks
+ to John Hallam for the patch.
+
+ Don't complain about strings longer than 255 characters in
+ --txt-record, just split the long strings into 255
+ character chunks instead.
+
+ Fix crash on double-free. This bug can only happen when
+ dhcp-script is in use and then only in rare circumstances
+ triggered by high DHCP transaction rate and a slow
+ script. Thanks to Ferenc Wagner for finding the problem.
+
+ Only log that a file has been sent by TFTP after the
+ transfer has completed succesfully.
+
+ A good suggestion from Ferenc Wagner: extend
+ the --domain option to allow this sort of thing:
+ --domain=thekelleys.org.uk,192.168.0.0/24,local
+ which automatically creates
+ --local=/thekelleys.org.uk/
+ --local=/0.168.192.in-addr.arpa/
+
+ Tighten up syntax checking of hex contants in the config
+ file. Thanks to Fred Damen for spotting this.
+
+ Add dnsmasq logo/icon, contributed by Justin Swift. Many
+ thanks for that.
+
+ Never cache DNS replies which have the 'cd' bit set, or
+ which result from queries forwarded with the 'cd' bit
+ set. The 'cd' bit instructs a DNSSEC validating server
+ upstream to ignore signature failures and return replies
+ anyway. Without this change it's possible to pollute the
+ dnsmasq cache with bad data by making a query with the
+ 'cd' bit set and subsequent queries would return this data
+ without its being marked as suspect. Thanks to Anders
+ Kaseorg for pointing out this problem.
+
+ Add --proxy-dnssec flag, for compliance with RFC
+ 4035. Dnsmasq will now clear the 'ad' bit in answers returned
+ from upstream validating nameservers unless this option is
+ set.
+
+ Allow a filename of "-" for --conf-file to read
+ stdin. Suggestion from Timothy Redaelli.
+
+ Rotate the order of SRV records in replies, to provide
+ round-robin load balancing when all the priorities are
+ equal. Thanks to Peter McKinney for the suggestion.
+
+ Edit
+ contrib/MacOSX-launchd/uk.org.thekelleys.dnsmasq.plist
+ so that it doesn't log all queries to a file by
+ default. Thanks again to Peter McKinney.
+
+ By default, setting an IPv4 address for a domain but not
+ an IPv6 address causes dnsmasq to return
+ an NODATA reply for IPv6 (or vice-versa). So
+ --address=/google.com/1.2.3.4 stops IPv6 queries for
+ *google.com from being forwarded. Make it possible to
+ override this behaviour by defining the sematics if the
+ same domain appears in both --server and --address.
+ In that case, the --address has priority for the address
+ family in which is appears, but the --server has priority
+ of the address family which doesn't appear in --adddress
+ So:
+ --address=/google.com/1.2.3.4
+ --server=/google.com/#
+ will return 1.2.3.4 for IPv4 queries for *.google.com but
+ forward IPv6 queries to the normal upstream nameserver.
+ Similarly when setting an IPv6 address
+ only this will allow forwarding of IPv4 queries. Thanks to
+ William for pointing out the need for this.
+
+ Allow more than one --dhcp-optsfile and --dhcp-hostsfile
+ and make them understand directories as arguments in the
+ same way as --addn-hosts. Suggestion from John Hanks.
+
+ Ignore rebinding requests for leases we don't know
+ about. Rebind is broadcast, so we might get to overhear a
+ request meant for another DHCP server. NAKing this is
+ wrong. Thanks to Brad D'Hondt for assistance with this.
+
+ Fix cosmetic bug which produced strange output when
+ dumping cache statistics with some configurations. Thanks
+ to Fedor Kozhevnikov for spotting this.
+
+
+version 2.55
+ Fix crash when /etc/ethers is in use. Thanks to
+ Gianluigi Tiesi for finding this.
+
+ Fix crash in netlink_multicast(). Thanks to Arno Wald for
+ finding this one.
+
+ Allow the empty domain "." in dhcp domain-search (119)
+ options.
+
+
+version 2.54
+ There is no version 2.54 to avoid confusion with 2.53,
+ which incorrectly identifies itself as 2.54.
+
+
+version 2.53
+ Fix failure to compile on Debian/kFreeBSD. Thanks to
+ Axel Beckert and Petr Salinger.
+
+ Fix code to avoid scary strict-aliasing warnings
+ generated by gcc 4.4.
+
+ Added FAQ entry warning about DHCP failures with Vista
+ when firewalls block 255.255.255.255.
+
+ Fixed bug which caused bad things to happen if a
+ resolv.conf file which exists is subsequently removed.
+ Thanks to Nikolai Saoukh for the patch.
+
+ Rationalised the DHCP tag system. Every configuration item
+ which can set a tag does so by adding "set:<tag>" and
+ every configuration item which is conditional on a tag is
+ made so by "tag:<tag>". The NOT operator changes to '!',
+ which is a bit more intuitive too. Dhcp-host directives
+ can set more than one tag now. The old '#' NOT,
+ "net:" prefix and no-prefixes are still honoured, so
+ no existing config file needs to be changed, but
+ the documentation and new-style config files should be
+ much less confusing.
+
+ Added --tag-if to allow boolean operations on tags.
+ This allows complicated logic to be clearer and more
+ general. A great suggestion from Richard Voigt.
+
+ Add broadcast/unicast information to DHCP logging.
+
+ Allow --dhcp-broadcast to be unconditional.
+
+ Fixed incorrect behaviour with NOT <tag> conditionals in
+ dhcp-options. Thanks to Max Turkewitz for assistance
+ finding this.
+
+ If we send vendor-class encapsulated options based on the
+ vendor-class supplied by the client, and no explicit
+ vendor-class option is given, echo back the vendor-class
+ from the client.
+
+ Fix bug which stopped dnsmasq from matching both a
+ circuitid and a remoteid. Thanks to Ignacio Bravo for
+ finding this.
+
+ Add --dhcp-proxy, which makes it possible to configure
+ dnsmasq to use a DHCP relay agent as a full proxy, with
+ all DHCP messages passing through the proxy. This is
+ useful if the relay adds extra information to the packets
+ it forwards, but cannot be configured with the RFC 5107
+ server-override option.
+
+ Added interface:<iface name> part to dhcp-range. The
+ semantics of this are very odd at first sight, but it
+ allows a single line of the form
+ dhcp-range=interface:virt0,192.168.0.4,192.168.0.200
+ to be added to dnsmasq configuration which then supplies
+ DHCP and DNS services to that interface, without affecting
+ what services are supplied to other interfaces and
+ irrespective of the existance or lack of
+ interface=<interface>
+ lines elsewhere in the dnsmasq configuration. The idea is
+ that such a line can be added automatically by libvirt
+ or equivalent systems, without disturbing any manual
+ configuration.
+
+ Similarly to the above, allow --enable-tftp=<interface>
+
+ Allow a TFTP root to be set separately for requests via
+ different interfaces, --tftp-root=<path>,<interface>
+
+ Correctly handle and log clashes between CNAMES and
+ DNS names being given to DHCP leases. This fixes a bug
+ which caused nonsense IP addresses to be logged. Thanks to
+ Sergei Zhirikov for finding and analysing the problem.
+
+ Tweak flush_log so as to avoid leaving the log
+ file in non-blocking mode. O_NONBLOCK is a property of the
+ file, not the process/descriptor.
+
+ Fix contrib/Solaris10/create_package
+ (/usr/man -> /usr/share/man) Thanks to Vita Batrla.
+
+ Fix a problem where, if a client got a lease, then went
+ to another subnet and got another lease, then moved back,
+ it couldn't resume the old lease, but would instead get
+ a new address. Thanks to Leonardo Rodrigues for spotting
+ this and testing the fix.
+
+ Fix weird bug which sometimes omitted certain characters
+ from the start of quoted strings in dhcp-options. Thanks
+ to Dayton Turner for spotting the problem.
+
+ Add facility to redirect some domains to the standard
+ upstream servers: this allows something like
+ --server=/google.com/1.2.3.4 --server=/www.google.com/#
+ which will send queries for *.google.com to 1.2.3.4,
+ except *www.google.com which will be forwarded as usual.
+ Thanks to AJ Weber for prompting this addition.
+
+ Improve the hash-algorithm used to generate IP addresses
+ from MAC addresses during initial DHCP address
+ allocation. This improves performance when large numbers
+ of hosts with similar MAC addresses all try and get an IP
+ address at the same time. Thanks to Paul Smith for his
+ work on this.
+
+ Tweak DHCP code so that --bridge-interface can be used to
+ select which IP alias of an interface should be used for
+ DHCP purposes on Linux. If eth0 has an alias eth0:dhcp
+ then adding --bridge-interface=eth0:dhcp,eth0 will use
+ the address of eth0:dhcp to determine the correct subnet
+ for DHCP address allocation. Thanks to Pawel Golaszewski
+ for prompting this and Eric Cooper for further testing.
+
+ Add --dhcp-generate-names. Suggestion by Ferenc Wagner.
+
+ Tweak DNS server selection algorithm when there is more
+ than one server available for a domain, eg.
+ --server=/mydomain/1.1.1.1
+ --server=/mydomain/2.2.2.2
+ Thanks to Alberto Cuesta-Canada for spotting a weakness
+ here.
+
+ Add --max-ttl. Thanks to Fredrik Ringertz for the patch.
+
+ Allow --log-facility=- to force all logging to
+ stderr. Suggestion from Clemens Fischer.
+
+ Fix regression which caused configuration like
+ --address=/.domain.com/1.2.3.4 to be rejected. The dot to the
+ left of the domain has been implied and not required for a
+ long time, but it should be accepted for backward
+ compatibility. Thanks to Andrew Burcin for spotting this.
+
+ Add --rebind-domain-ok and --rebind-localhost-ok.
+ Suggestion from Clemens Fischer.
+
+ Log replies to queries of type TXT, when --log-queries
+ is set.
+
+ Fix compiler warnings when compiled with -DNO_DHCP. Thanks
+ to Shantanu Gadgil for the patch.
+
+ Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
+
+ Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
+
+ Updated German translation. Thanks to Matthias Andree.
+
+ Added contrib/static-arp, thanks to Darren Hoo.
+
+ Fix corruption of the domain when a name from /etc/hosts
+ overrides one supplied by a DHCP client. Thanks to Fedor
+ Kozhevnikov for spotting the problem.
+
+ Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.
+
+
+version 2.52
+ Work around a Linux kernel bug which insists that the
+ length of the option passed to setsockopt must be at least
+ sizeof(int) bytes, even if we're calling SO_BINDTODEVICE
+ and the device name is "lo". Note that this is fixed
+ in kernel 2.6.31, but the workaround is harmless and
+ allows earlier kernels to be used. Also fix dnsmasq
+ bug which reported the wrong address when this failed.
+ Thanks to Fedor for finding this.
+
+ The API for IPv6 PKTINFO changed around Linux kernel
+ 2.6.14. Workaround the case where dnsmasq is compiled
+ against newer headers, but then run on an old kernel:
+ necessary for some *WRT distros.
+
+ Re-read the set of network interfaces when re-loading
+ /etc/resolv.conf if --bind-interfaces is not set. This
+ handles the case that loopback interfaces do not exist
+ when dnsmasq is first started.
+
+ Tweak the PXE code to support port 4011. This should
+ reduce broadcasts and make things more reliable when other
+ servers are around. It also improves inter-operability
+ with certain clients.
+
+ Make a pxe-service configuration with no filename or boot
+ service type legal: this does a local boot. eg.
+ pxe-service=x86PC, "Local boot"
+
+ Be more conservative in detecting "A for A"
+ queries. Dnsmasq checks if the name in a type=A query looks
+ like a dotted-quad IP address and answers the query itself
+ if so, rather than forwarding it. Previously dnsmasq
+ relied in the library function inet_addr() to convert
+ addresses, and that will accept some things which are
+ confusing in this context, like 1.2.3 or even just
+ 1234. Now we only do A for A processing for four decimal
+ numbers delimited by dots.
+
+ A couple of tweaks to fix compilation on Solaris. Thanks
+ to Joel Macklow for help with this.
+
+ Another Solaris compilation tweak, needed for Solaris
+ 2009.06. Thanks to Lee Essen for that.
+
+ Added extract packaging stuff from Lee Essen to
+ contrib/Solaris10.
+
+ Increased the default limit on number of leases to 1000
+ (from 150). This is mainly a defence against DoS attacks,
+ and for the average "one for two class C networks"
+ installation, IP address exhaustion does that just as
+ well. Making the limit greater than the number of IP
+ addresses available in such an installation removes a
+ surprise which otherwise can catch people out.
+
+ Removed extraneous trailing space in the value of the
+ DNSMASQ_TIME_REMAINING DNSMASQ_LEASE_LENGTH and
+ DNSMASQ_LEASE_EXPIRES environment variables. Thanks to
+ Gildas Le Nadan for spotting this.
+
+ Provide the network-id tags for a DHCP transaction to
+ the lease-change script in the environment variable
+ DNSMASQ_TAGS. A good suggestion from Gildas Le Nadan.
+
+ Add support for RFC3925 "Vendor-Identifying Vendor
+ Options". The syntax looks like this:
+ --dhcp-option=vi-encap:<enterprise number>, .........
+
+ Add support to --dhcp-match to allow matching against
+ RFC3925 "Vendor-Identifying Vendor Classes". The syntax
+ looks like this:
+ --dhcp-match=tag,vi-encap<enterprise number>, <value>
+
+ Add some application specific code to assist in
+ implementing the Broadband forum TR069 CPE-WAN
+ specification. The details are in contrib/CPE-WAN/README
+
+ Increase the default DNS packet size limit to 4096, as
+ recommended by RFC5625 section 4.4.3. This can be
+ reconfigured using --edns-packet-max if needed. Thanks to
+ Francis Dupont for pointing this out.
+
+ Rewrite query-ids even for TSIG signed packets, since
+ this is allowed by RFC5625 section 4.5.
+
+ Use getopt_long by default on OS X. It has been supported
+ since version 10.3.0. Thanks to Arek Dreyer for spotting
+ this.
+
+ Added up-to-date startup configuration for MacOSX/launchd
+ in contrib/MacOSX-launchd. Thanks to Arek Dreyer for
+ providing this.
+
+ Fix link error when including Dbus but excluding DHCP.
+ Thanks to Oschtan for the bug report.
+
+ Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
+
+ Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
+
+ Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.
+
+ Fixed confusion about domains, when looking up DHCP hosts
+ in /etc/hosts. This could cause spurious "Ignoring
+ domain..." messages. Thanks to Fedor Kozhevnikov for
+ finding and analysing the problem.
+
+
+version 2.51
+ Add support for internationalised DNS. Non-ASCII characters
+ in domain names found in /etc/hosts, /etc/ethers and
+ /etc/dnsmasq.conf will be correctly handled by translation to
+ punycode, as specified in RFC3490. This function is only
+ available if dnsmasq is compiled with internationalisation
+ support, and adds a dependency on GNU libidn. Without i18n
+ support, dnsmasq continues to be compilable with just
+ standard tools. Thanks to Yves Dorfsman for the
+ suggestion.
+
+ Add two more environment variables for lease-change scripts:
+ First, DNSMASQ_SUPPLIED_HOSTNAME; this is set to the hostname
+ supplied by a client, even if the actual hostname used is
+ over-ridden by dhcp-host or dhcp-ignore-names directives.
+ Also DNSMASQ_RELAY_ADDRESS which gives the address of
+ a DHCP relay, if used.
+ Suggestions from Michael Rack.
+
+ Fix regression which broke echo of relay-agent
+ options. Thanks to Michael Rack for spotting this.
+
+ Don't treat option 67 as being interchangeable with
+ dhcp-boot parameters if it's specified as
+ dhcp-option-force.
+
+ Make the code to call scripts on lease-change compile-time
+ optional. It can be switched off by editing src/config.h
+ or building with "make COPTS=-DNO_SCRIPT".
+
+ Make the TFTP server cope with filenames from Windows/DOS
+ which use '\' as pathname separator. Thanks to Ralf for
+ the patch.
+
+ Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
+
+ Warn if an IP address is duplicated in /etc/ethers. Thanks
+ to Felix Schwarz for pointing this out.
+
+ Teach --conf-dir to take an option list of file suffices
+ which will be ignored when scanning the directory. Useful
+ for backup files etc. Thanks to Helmut Hullen for the
+ suggestion.
+
+ Add new DHCP option named tftpserver-address, which
+ corresponds to the third argument of dhcp-boot. This
+ allows the complete functionality of dhcp-boot to be
+ replicated with dhcp-option. Useful when using
+ dhcp-optsfile.
+
+ Test which upstream nameserver to use every 10 seconds
+ or 50 queries and not just when a query times out and
+ is retried. This should improve performance when there
+ is a slow nameserver in the list. Thanks to Joe for the
+ suggestion.
+
+ Don't do any PXE processing, even for clients with the
+ correct vendorclass, unless at least one pxe-prompt or
+ pxe-service option is given. This stops dnsmasq
+ interfering with proxy PXE subsystems when it is just
+ the DHCP server. Thanks to Spencer Clark for spotting this.
+
+ Limit the blocksize used for TFTP transfers to a value
+ which avoids packet fragmentation, based on the MTU of the
+ local interface. Many netboot ROMs can't cope with
+ fragmented packets.
+
+ Honour dhcp-ignore configuration for PXE and proxy-PXE
+ requests. Thanks to Niels Basjes for the bug report.
+
+ Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
+
+
+version 2.50
+ Fix security problem which allowed any host permitted to
+ do TFTP to possibly compromise dnsmasq by remote buffer
+ overflow when TFTP enabled. Thanks to Core Security
+ Technologies and Iván Arce, Pablo Hernán Jorge, Alejandro
+ Pablo Rodriguez, Martín Coco, Alberto Soliño Testa and
+ Pablo Annetta. This problem has Bugtraq id: 36121
+ and CVE: 2009-2957
+
+ Fix a problem which allowed a malicious TFTP client to
+ crash dnsmasq. Thanks to Steve Grubb at Red Hat for
+ spotting this. This problem has Bugtraq id: 36120 and
+ CVE: 2009-2958
+
+
+version 2.49
+ Fix regression in 2.48 which disables the lease-change
+ script. Thanks to Jose Luis Duran for spotting this.
+
+ Log TFTP "file not found" errors. These were not logged,
+ since a normal PXELinux boot generates many of them, but
+ the lack of the messages seems to be more confusing than
+ routinely seeing them when there is no real error.
+
+ Update Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.
+
+
+version 2.48
+ Archived the extensive, backwards, changelog to
+ CHANGELOG.archive. The current changelog now runs from
+ version 2.43 and runs conventionally.
+
+ Fixed bug which broke binding of servers to physical
+ interfaces when interface names were longer than four
+ characters. Thanks to MURASE Katsunori for the patch.
+
+ Fixed netlink code to check that messages come from the
+ correct source, and not another userspace process. Thanks
+ to Steve Grubb for the patch.
+
+ Maintainability drive: removed bug and missing feature
+ workarounds for some old platforms. Solaris 9, OpenBSD
+ older than 4.1, Glibc older than 2.2, Linux 2.2.x and
+ DBus older than 1.1.x are no longer supported.
+
+ Don't read included configuration files more than once:
+ allows complex configuration structures without problems.
+
+ Mark log messages from the various subsystems in dnsmasq:
+ messages from the DHCP subsystem now have the ident string
+ "dnsmasq-dhcp" and messages from TFTP have ident
+ "dnsmasq-tftp". Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the patch.
+
+ Fix possible infinite DHCP protocol loop when an IP
+ address nailed to a hostname (not a MAC address) and a
+ host sometimes provides the name, sometimes not.
+
+ Allow --addn-hosts to take a directory: all the files
+ in the directory are read. Thanks to Phil Cornelius for
+ the suggestion.
+
+ Support --bridge-interface on all platforms, not just BSD.
+
+ Added support for advanced PXE functions. It's now
+ possible to define a prompt and menu options which will
+ be displayed when a client PXE boots. It's also possible to
+ hand-off booting to other boot servers. Proxy-DHCP, where
+ dnsmasq just supplies the PXE information and another DHCP
+ server does address allocation, is also allowed. See the
+ --pxe-prompt and --pxe-service keywords. Thanks to
+ Alkis Georgopoulos for the suggestion and Guilherme Moro
+ and Michael Brown for assistance.
+
+ Improvements to DHCP logging. Thanks to Tom Metro for
+ useful suggestions.
+
+ Add ability to build dnsmasq without DHCP support. To do
+ this, edit src/config.h or build with
+ "make COPTS=-DNO_DHCP". Thanks to Mahavir Jain for the patch.
+
+ Added --test command-line switch - syntax check
+ configuration files only.
+
+ Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
+
+
+version 2.47
+ Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
+
+ Fixed interface enumeration code to work on NetBSD
+ 5.0. Thanks to Roy Marples for the patch.
+
+ Updated config.h to use the same location for the lease
+ file on NetBSD as the other *BSD variants. Also allow
+ LEASEFILE and CONFFILE symbols to be overriden in CFLAGS.
+
+ Handle duplicate address detection on IPv6 more
+ intelligently. In IPv6, an interface can have an address
+ which is not usable, because it is still undergoing DAD
+ (such addresses are marked "tentative"). Attempting to
+ bind to an address in this state returns an error,
+ EADDRNOTAVAIL. Previously, on getting such an error,
+ dnsmasq would silently abandon the address, and never
+ listen on it. Now, it retries once per second for 20
+ seconds before generating a fatal error. 20 seconds should
+ be long enough for any DAD process to complete, but can be
+ adjusted in src/config.h if necessary. Thanks to Martin
+ Krafft for the bug report.
+
+ Add DBus introspection. Patch from Jeremy Laine.
+
+ Update Dbus configuration file. Patch from Colin Walters.
+ Fix for this bug:
+ http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18961
+
+ Support arbitrarily encapsulated DHCP options, suggestion
+ and initial patch from Samium Gromoff. This is useful for
+ (eg) gPXE, which expect all its private options to be
+ encapsulated inside a single option 175. So, eg,
+
+ dhcp-option = encap:175, 190, "iscsi-client0"
+ dhcp-option = encap:175, 191, "iscsi-client0-secret"
+
+ will provide iSCSI parameters to gPXE.
+
+ Enhance --dhcp-match to allow testing of the contents of a
+ client-sent option, as well as its presence. This
+ application in mind for this is RFC 4578
+ client-architecture specifiers, but it's generally useful.
+ Joey Korkames suggested the enhancement.
+
+ Move from using the IP_XMIT_IF ioctl to IP_BOUND_IF on
+ OpenSolaris. Thanks to Bastian Machek for the heads-up.
+
+ No longer complain about blank lines in
+ /etc/ethers. Thanks to Jon Nelson for the patch.
+
+ Fix binding of servers to physical devices, eg
+ --server=/domain/1.2.3.4@eth0 which was broken from 2.43
+ onwards unless --query-port=0 set. Thanks to Peter Naulls
+ for the bug report.
+
+ Reply to DHCPINFORM requests even when the supplied ciaddr
+ doesn't fall in any dhcp-range. In this case it's not
+ possible to supply a complete configuration, but
+ individually-configured options (eg PAC) may be useful.
+
+ Allow the source address of an alias to be a range:
+ --alias=192.168.0.0,10.0.0.0,255.255.255.0 maps the whole
+ subnet 192.168.0.0->192.168.0.255 to 10.0.0.0->10.0.0.255,
+ as before.
+ --alias=192.168.0.10-192.168.0.40,10.0.0.0,255.255.255.0
+ maps only the 192.168.0.10->192.168.0.40 region. Thanks to
+ Ib Uhrskov for the suggestion.
+
+ Don't dynamically allocate DHCP addresses which may break
+ Windows. Addresses which end in .255 or .0 are broken in
+ Windows even when using supernetting.
+ --dhcp-range=192.168.0.1,192.168.1.254,255,255,254.0 means
+ 192.168.0.255 is a valid IP address, but not for Windows.
+ See Microsoft KB281579. We therefore no longer allocate
+ these addresses to avoid hard-to-diagnose problems.
+
+ Update Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
+
+ Delete the PID-file when dnsmasq shuts down. Note that by
+ this time, dnsmasq is normally not running as root, so
+ this will fail if the PID-file is stored in a root-owned
+ directory; such failure is silently ignored. To take
+ advantage of this feature, the PID-file must be stored in a
+ directory owned and write-able by the user running
+ dnsmasq.
+
+
+version 2.46
+ Allow --bootp-dynamic to take a netid tag, so that it may
+ be selectively enabled. Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the
+ suggestion.
+
+ Remove ISC-leasefile reading code. This has been
+ deprecated for a long time, and last time I removed it, it
+ ended up going back by request of one user. This time,
+ it's gone for good; otherwise it would need to be
+ re-worked to support multiple domains (see below).
+
+ Support DHCP clients in multiple DNS domains. This is a
+ long-standing request. Clients are assigned to a domain
+ based in their IP address.
+
+ Add --dhcp-fqdn flag, which changes behaviour if DNS names
+ assigned to DHCP clients. When this is set, there must be
+ a domain associated with each client, and only
+ fully-qualified domain names are added to the DNS. The
+ advantage is that the only the FQDN needs to be unique,
+ so that two or more DHCP clients can share a hostname, as
+ long as they are in different domains.
+
+ Set environment variable DNSMASQ_DOMAIN when invoking
+ lease-change script. This may be useful information to
+ have now that it's variable.
+
+ Tighten up data-checking code for DNS packet
+ handling. Thanks to Steve Dodd who found certain illegal
+ packets which could crash dnsmasq. No memory overwrite was
+ possible, so this is not a security issue beyond the DoS
+ potential.
+
+ Update example config dhcp option 47, the previous
+ suggestion generated an illegal, zero-length,
+ option. Thanks to Matthias Andree for finding this.
+
+ Rewrite hosts-file reading code to remove the limit of
+ 1024 characters per line. John C Meuser found this.
+
+ Create a net-id tag with the name of the interface on
+ which the DHCP request was received.
+
+ Fixed minor memory leak in DBus code, thanks to Jeremy
+ Laine for the patch.
+
+ Emit DBus signals as the DHCP lease database
+ changes. Thanks to Jeremy Laine for the patch.
+
+ Allow for more that one MAC address in a dhcp-host
+ line. This configuration tells dnsmasq that it's OK to
+ abandon a DHCP lease of the fixed address to one MAC
+ address, if another MAC address in the dhcp-host statement
+ asks for an address. This is useful to give a fixed
+ address to a host which has two network interfaces
+ (say, a laptop with wired and wireless interfaces.)
+ It's very important to ensure that only one interface
+ at a time is up, since dnsmasq abandons the first lease
+ and re-uses the address before the leased time has
+ elapsed. John Gray suggested this.
+
+ Tweak the response to a DHCP request packet with a wrong
+ server-id when --dhcp-authoritative is set; dnsmasq now
+ returns a DHCPNAK, rather than silently ignoring the
+ packet. Thanks to Chris Marget for spotting this
+ improvement.
+
+ Add --cname option. This provides a limited alias
+ function, usable for DHCP names. Thanks to AJ Weber for
+ suggestions on this.
+
+ Updated contrib/webmin with latest version from Neil
+ Fisher.
+
+ Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
+
+ Correct the text names for DHCP options 64 and 65 to be
+ "nis+-domain" and "nis+-servers".
+
+ Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.
+
+ Force re-reading of /etc/resolv.conf when an "interface
+ up" event occurs.
+
+
+version 2.45
+ Fix total DNS failure in release 2.44 unless --min-port
+ specified. Thanks to Steven Barth and Grant Coady for
+ bugreport. Also reject out-of-range port spec, which could
+ break things too: suggestion from Gilles Espinasse.
+
+
+version 2.44
+ Fix crash when unknown client attempts to renew a DHCP
+ lease, problem introduced in version 2.43. Thanks to
+ Carlos Carvalho for help chasing this down.
+
+ Fix potential crash when a host which doesn't have a lease
+ does DHCPINFORM. Again introduced in 2.43. This bug has
+ never been reported in the wild.
+
+ Fix crash in netlink code introduced in 2.43. Thanks to
+ Jean Wolter for finding this.
+
+ Change implementation of min_port to work even if min-port
+ is large.
+
+ Patch to enable compilation of latest Mac OS X. Thanks to
+ David Gilman.
+
+ Update Spanish translation. Thanks to Christopher Chatham.
+
+
+version 2.43
+ Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
+
+ Flag errors when configuration options are repeated
+ illegally.
+
+ Further tweaks for GNU/kFreeBSD
+
+ Add --no-wrap to msgmerge call - provides nicer .po file
+ format.
+
+ Honour lease-time spec in dhcp-host lines even for
+ BOOTP. The user is assumed to known what they are doing in
+ this case. (Hosts without the time spec still get infinite
+ leases for BOOTP, over-riding the default in the
+ dhcp-range.) Thanks to Peter Katzmann for uncovering this.
+
+ Fix problem matching relay-agent ids. Thanks to Michael
+ Rack for the bug report.
+
+ Add --naptr-record option. Suggestion from Johan
+ Bergquist.
+
+ Implement RFC 5107 server-id-override DHCP relay agent
+ option.
+
+ Apply patches from Stefan Kruger for compilation on
+ Solaris 10 under Sun studio.
+
+ Yet more tweaking of Linux capability code, to suppress
+ pointless wingeing from kernel 2.6.25 and above.
+
+ Improve error checking during startup. Previously, some
+ errors which occurred during startup would be worked
+ around, with dnsmasq still starting up. Some were logged,
+ some silent. Now, they all cause a fatal error and dnsmasq
+ terminates with a non-zero exit code. The errors are those
+ associated with changing uid and gid, setting process
+ capabilities and writing the pidfile. Thanks to Uwe
+ Gansert and the Suse security team for pointing out
+ this improvement, and Bill Reimers for good implementation
+ suggestions.
+
+ Provide NO_LARGEFILE compile option to switch off largefile
+ support when compiling against versions of uclibc which
+ don't support it. Thanks to Stephane Billiart for the patch.
+
+ Implement random source ports for interactions with
+ upstream nameservers. New spoofing attacks have been found
+ against nameservers which do not do this, though it is not
+ clear if dnsmasq is vulnerable, since to doesn't implement
+ recursion. By default dnsmasq will now use a different
+ source port (and socket) for each query it sends
+ upstream. This behaviour can suppressed using the
+ --query-port option, and the old default behaviour
+ restored using --query-port=0. Explicit source-port
+ specifications in --server configs are still honoured.
+
+ Replace the random number generator, for better
+ security. On most BSD systems, dnsmasq uses the
+ arc4random() RNG, which is secure, but on other platforms,
+ it relied on the C-library RNG, which may be
+ guessable and therefore allow spoofing. This release
+ replaces the libc RNG with the SURF RNG, from Daniel
+ J. Berstein's DJBDNS package.
+
+ Don't attempt to change user or group or set capabilities
+ if dnsmasq is run as a non-root user. Without this, the
+ change from soft to hard errors when these fail causes
+ problems for non-root daemons listening on high
+ ports. Thanks to Patrick McLean for spotting this.
+
+ Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
