[Dnsmasq-discuss] issue with except-interface

[e9hack]

Hi,

it seems that '--except-interface' doesn't work properly. I need one interface which is
never used by dnsmasq. I would like to run hostapd with driver wired on it. If I use
'--except-interface=xxx', it doesn't work because hostapd complains about 'bind: Address
already in use'. If I use '--bind-interfaces', I've to specify every interface with
'--interface=yyy' which shall be used by dnsmasq. If such an interface isn't started yet,
dnsmasq doesn't start with 'dnsmasq: unknown interface yyy'.

How can I solve this issue?

Regards,
Hartmut
