dear dnsmasq users---I want to use dnsmasq for only one feature, its
ability to redirect all subdomains to localhost.  I scrounged around
to find the simplest config example, but failed.  based on older
ubuntu instructions, I tried

# apt install dnsmasq
# echo "address=/funny.test/127.0.0.1" > /etc/dnsmasq.d/funny.test
# systemctl restart dnsmasq
# nslookup abc.funny.test
  Server:       127.0.0.53
  Address:  127.0.0.53#53

  ** server can't find abc.funny.test: NXDOMAIN
#

plus many variations.  could someone please tell me the correct spell
?  sincerely, /iaw4
