<pre>Describe better what is on the system that is supposed to run dnsmasq.

<pre>Cheap. I did read: "I have told you my problem, you must solve it. Do
not expect any further response, I have already said thanks, just fix
my problem". Less cheap: Leave out "in advance gratitude", remain
owner of the challenge, do further research in parallel of waiting on
response from the community, report progress.
A true "Thanks" will be sharing the solution or a workaround.
