Thank you!
And into which of these files does dnsmasq write the client's name (the
name the client presents when it asks for an IP adress)?
I haven't yet found any such name in any of these files, and I haven't
yet found an option or switch to make dnsmasq more verbose in this
special case.
Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
