[Dnsmasq-discuss] hosts on multiple networks

[lx at survive-linux.com]

The only reason i have found is a major one for me...

e.g the server is a file server containing 3 1000 Mbps NICS

the 3 different lan have limit or no access to each other,

so i basiclly dont want my firewall (containing 4 100 Mbps NIC) to handle
all the traffic.

Am i wrong?!?

please let me know.

by the way, thanks simon for the excellent solution and the excellent
dnsmasq!!!

the only thing which made me worry is the mailserver for this list ;)
