Hello,

Is it possible to query dns request by dnsmasq, from a
windows workstation?

I am using dnsmasq to serves query from the linux
machine itself, and it work fine, but i am not able to
make a another machine asking dnsmasq to give answer.

(i dont want to use the dhcpd server include in
dnsmasq)

this the the log of dnsmasq:
when i am doing : nslookup www.google.fr from a
windows workstation

dnsmasq[10809]: query[PTR] 123.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa
from 192.168.1.20
dnsmasq[10809]: forwarded 123.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa
to 212.30.96.123

192.168.1.123 is the interface where dnsmasq is
working, 212.30.96.123 is my ISP dns server. but then
the windows workstation get this :

*** Can't find server name for address 192.168.1.123:
Non-existent domain

when i am doing the query from the linux machine
itself, no problem.

Thank you for your help,
