[Dnsmasq-discuss] DNSMasq not using UDP

[Piero]

You are so right!
[root at opaplnx23 ~]# netstat -lpn | grep dnsmasq
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:53                  0.0.0.0:*
     LISTEN      6365/dnsmasq
tcp        0      0 :::53                       :::*
     LISTEN      6365/dnsmasq
udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:53                  0.0.0.0:*
                 6365/dnsmasq
udp        0      0 :::53                       :::*
                 6365/dnsmasq

Sorry for the stupid question.

Thanks
Piero
