Maybe I'm missing something, but this way:
# host somename.foo-domain
returns 192.168.0.42
But I want:
# host foo-domain
to return 192.168.0.42
Of course i can add:
192.168.0.42 foo-domain.foo-domain foo-domain
To /etc/hosts, but it's not what I want. I want to have IP assigned to
whole domain not for host with the same name as domain name.
Let's imagine that dnsmasq is set as public DNS for somecompany.com
domain. I know how to set it up, to respond for every subdomain
name-to-ip request (www.somecompany.com, ftp.somecompany.com, etc.), but
I don't know how to set it to return IP for somecompmny.com domain
itself.
