--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
version 2.64
Handle DHCP FQDN options with all flag bits zero and
--dhcp-client-update set. Thanks to Bernd Krumbroeck for
spotting the problem.
Finesse the check for /etc/hosts names which conflict with
DHCP names. Previously a name/address pair in /etc/hosts
which didn't match the name/address of a DHCP lease would
generate a warning. Now that only happesn if there is not
also a match. This allows multiple addresses for a name in
/etc/hosts with one of them assigned via DHCP.
Fix broken vendor-option processing for BOOTP. Thanks to
Hans-Joachim Baader for the bug report.
Don't report spurious netlink errors, regression in
2.63. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.
Flag DHCP or DHCPv6 in starup logging. Thanks to
Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.
Add SetServersEx method in DBus interface. Thanks to Dan
Williams for the patch.
Add SetDomainServers method in DBus interface. Thanks to
Roy Marples for the patch.
Fix build with later Lua libraries. Thanks to Cristian
Rodriguez for the patch.
Add --max-cache-ttl option. Thanks to Dennis Kaarsemaker
for the patch.
Fix breakage of --host-record parsing, resulting in
infinte loop at startup. Regression in 2.63. Thanks to
Haim Gelfenbeyn for spotting this.
Set SO_REUSEADDRESS and SO_V6ONLY options on the DHCPv6
socket, this allows multiple instances of dnsmasq on a
single machine, in the same way as for DHCPv4. Thanks to
Gene Czarcinski and Vladislav Grishenko for work on this.
Fix DHCPv6 to do access control correctly when it's
configured with --listen-address. Thanks to
Gene Czarcinski for sorting this out.
Add a "wildcard" dhcp-range which works for any IPv6
subnet, --dhcp-range=::,static Useful for Stateless
DHCPv6. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.
Don't include lease-time in DHCPACK replies to DHCPINFORM
queries, since RFC-2131 says we shouldn't. Thanks to
Wouter Ibens for pointing this out.
Makefile tweak to do dependency checking on header files.
Thanks to Johan Peeters for the patch.
Check interface for outgoing unsolicited router
advertisements, rather than relying on interface address
configuration. Thanks to Gene Czarinski for the patch.
Handle better attempts to transmit on interfaces which are
still doing DAD, and specifically do not just transmit
without setting source address and interface, since this
can cause very puzzling effects when a router
advertisement goes astray. Thanks again to Gene Czarinski.
Get RA timers right when there is more than one
dhcp-range on a subnet.
