Hallo, Simon,

Compiling works (but why does it ask for "nawk" - I haven't installed  
"nawk").

When I start the new dnsmasq it works in another way than 2.41.

I append "conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d" to "/etc/dnsmasq.conf" and do all my  
local changes in special files in this subdirectory. It's better to see  
the changes in a small special file than in the original "dnsmasq.conf"  
with its nearly 500 lines.

The files in the subdirectory overwrite the options in "dnsmasq.conf" -  
it's a fine and simple way.

But 2.43rc3 doesn't like duplicate options - and I may not change the  
behaviour of 2.41.

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
