# This file has six functions: # 1) to completely disable starting this dnsmasq instance # 2) to set DOMAIN_SUFFIX by running `dnsdomainname` # 3) to select an alternative config file # by setting DNSMASQ_OPTS to --conf-file= # 4) to tell dnsmasq to read the files in /etc/dnsmasq.d for # more configuration variables. # 5) to stop the resolvconf package from controlling dnsmasq's # idea of which upstream nameservers to use. # 6) to avoid using this dnsmasq instance as the system's default resolver # by setting DNSMASQ_EXCEPT="lo" # For upgraders from very old versions, all the shell variables set # here in previous versions are still honored by the init script # so if you just keep your old version of this file nothing will break. #DOMAIN_SUFFIX=`dnsdomainname` #DNSMASQ_OPTS="--conf-file=/etc/dnsmasq.alt" # The dnsmasq daemon is run by default conforming to the Debian Policy. # To disable the service, # for SYSV init, use "update-rc.d dnsmasq disable", # for systemd, use "systemctl disable dnsmasq". # By default search this drop directory for configuration options. # Libvirt leaves a file here to make the system dnsmasq play nice. # Comment out this line if you don't want this.
