[Dnsmasq-discuss] priority of local= and ipset=

[Simon Kelley]

repeating a domain in --server (or --local) is sensible and dnsmasq will
use some or all of the servers for an individual query, depending on
unknowable stuff.

You would imagine that

ipset=/google.com/one
ipset=/google.com/two

would be equivalent to the documented

ipset=/google.com/one,two

but clearly it isn't. The advice is to stick to the documented way of
expressing those semantics, I guess.


Cheers,
Simon.
