<p class=MsoNormal>I have the following dhcp options in my dnsmasq.conf file:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>They work fine with no problems. I decided to move them to
their own file using dhcp-optsfile=. When I restarted dnsmasq I received the
following errors in the log file:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The first two lines in the dhcp-optsfile are comments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Why do these lines work in the dnsmasq.conf file but not in
the dhcp-optsfile? What am I doing wrong?<o:p></o:p></p>
