[Dnsmasq-discuss] Fwd: Test releases.

[Dominik Derigs]

Hey Simon,

Thank you for the tag. We've pushed out 2.91test9 on the same day to all 
Pi-hole beta users. We have no real idea how many are out there but we 
see at least roughly 100 participants in our discussion platforms. There 
are probably many more which never speak up.

So far, everything has been smooth but this morning we received a 
response from a very careful user having noticed something odd. Their 
configuration looks like

server=8.8.8.8
server=8.8.4.4

plus thousands of lines for individual domains to other servers like

server=/abcnews.com/1.1.1.1
server=/abcnews.com/9.9.9.9

What they have seen now is that - rather often - queries which have NO 
individual server=// lines are still sent to 1.1.1.1 although they 
should have been sent to the default servers 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4.

I have not had time to try to reproduce this inside dnsmasq myself but 
maybe it already rings a bell as to what may be happening (like maybe 
not resetting the next server to be used, etc.) in case of a config like 
the one I described above.

Best
Dominik
