<DIV>The 192.168.1.1 is probably coming from DHCP? If so, configure your DHCP
server to advertise the preferred DNS server. You could also configure your
firewall to redirect all DNS requests to the preferred DNS server. Just make
sure you don’t block dnsmasq in the process.<BR><BR>--David<BR><BR></DIV>
