[Dnsmasq-discuss] dnsmasq queries external dns servers even if dnsmasq is the authorized server for that domain.

I've just pushed a change to git that removes this filtering for  
internal clients, and that should solve Rene's problem. It does change  
behaviour in the case that an auth-zone is not the same as an internal  
zone: before, queries for that would go upstream, and be subject to  
subnet filtering, now, they're answered locally, (good) and not filtered  
(maybe good). For a concrete example, I have an auth zone called  
lan.thekelleys.org.uk and my internal domain is thekelleys.org.uk. This  
machine is always resolvable as spike.thekelleys.org.uk internally, but  
not externally. It is resolvable as spike.lan.thekelleys.org.uk  
externally and internally (try it) but only for IPV6, since it's IPv4  
address is RFC1918. With the change, spike.lan.thekelleys.org.uk _does_  
return the RFC1918 address for clients within my LAN, but not for  
external clients. That's probably a sensible change. 
 
 
Rene, does the latest git commit fix your problem OK? 

Yes, it is working. Thanks for the effort.
