Hi List, Hi Simon!

Is it able to tell DNSMASQ to use an fixed ip-address to contact 
dns-upstream-servers that defined in /etc/resolv.conf ?

My system is multihomed and in my current situation DNSMASQ uses the 
ip-address of my default-routes device.

On the documentation (MANPAGE) there is a option --query-port= but this 
is not for use to define the query-ip-address.

I don't like to use IPTABLES-NAT to do this job, because every request 
will stored in the nat connection tracker.

Bye,
Michael.
