[Dnsmasq-discuss] Strange behavior when making the nameserver machine use dnsmasq

[Zack Little]

Thanks for the reminder about that.  I went and did some traces and sure enough that is what is happening.  The requests that are being sent to multipler servers (generated from a request kicked off by Windows Vista) are all using the same transaction ID.  The requests that keep hitting the first DNS (generated from a request kicked off by Linux) are using different transactions IDs.  Argh.  At least I know now where to direct my attention.  Hopefully I'll be able to find a way to get the kernel to stop doing that. 

 

Thank you both for the replies.

First use wireshark or something to capture the requests and see if Simon is correct about the transaction ID changing.  It's probably not an issue of loopback vs network traffic, but of Linux vs Windows network stack and dns client.
