[Dnsmasq-discuss] Fwd: dnsmasq forwards it's own hostname upstream

Hi,

dnsmasq is forwarding queries when queried for it's own hostname with a
local domain suffix. dnsmasq responds correctly when the domain is not
present. e.g. <hostname>.lan will be forwarded, and <hostname> will be
replied to.

dnsmasq responds as expected for hosts in the network that assigned via
DHCP. The dnsmasq instance itself is statically configured.

The relevant configuration
domain-needed
bogus-priv
dhcp-authoritative
dhcp-range=192.168.1.100,192.168.1.251,24h
dhcp-option=option:router,192.168.1.1
dhcp-leasefile=/etc/pihole/dhcp.leases
domain=lan

Additional information (e.g. dig results) can be found here:

Thanks,
Tucker
