[Dnsmasq-discuss] uclinux dnsmasq wont poll

Hi,

I am using dnsmasq with uclinux, I think the dnsmasq version is 1.8.

It seems to work great except the following caveat.  

If I start dnsmasq from a shell script during init, it doesnt want to poll the resolv.conf file.  If I change this file, DNS masq doesn't add new DNS servers.  If I kill the process and restart it manually, using the exact same scripts and parameters, it works properly.

Any idea what might cause this behaviour?

I even tried starting the service as the final thing I do in my init scripts, to ensure nothing happening after it in init is causing the problem.  It still does not work properly, so after then logging in, killing the process and restarting it with my script it works fine.
