<p>Please report what is on line 56.</p>
<p>Following command would print just that:<br>
</p>
<p>sed -e '56!d' /etc/dnsmasq.conf</p>
<p>I doubt that is about max-ttl option. Are you still using RHEL6 (or derivate) for some reason? I thought every option is supported in more recent versions. I would like to know what option were supported in the old but is not in current version. Please Share.</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>
Petr<br>

<br>
what exactly does "didn't work" mean?<br>
does dnsmasq still refuse to start?<br>
do you have any error message?<br>
did you try to stop it before starting?<br>
