[Dnsmasq-discuss] mixing synth-domain and auth-domain does not appear to work for me.

[David Beveridge]

So I have a few static hosts defined in /etc/hosts and I want to
serve authoritative records for them.
I also have some machines which get address via dhcp and slaac which I want
to publish using synth-domain.

Each option works alone, but when I mix the options
eg
auth-zone=thekelleys.org.uk,192.168.0.0/24
synth-domain=thekelleys.org.uk,192.168.0.0/24,internal-

with synth-domain only
# dig internal-192-168-0-56.thekelleys.org.uk @223.27.66.79
;; ANSWER SECTION:
internal-192-168-0-56.thekelleys.org.uk. 0 IN A 192.168.0.56

with both defined, no answer is returned.
eg
root at ns1 /etc/dnsmasq.d # dig internal-192-168-0-56.thekelleys.org.uk @
223.27.66.79

; <<>> DiG 9.8.2rc1-RedHat-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.4 <<>>
internal-192-168-0-56.thekelleys.org.uk @223.27.66.79

The behaviour is the same for Ipv6.

regards,
dave.

PS: any reason why synth-domain is limited to /64 for IPv6?
