Well, you can of course use dnsmasq instead of isc-dhcp-server in<br>
your environment. But if you're asking for out-of-the-box support<br>
within the grml-terminalserver user interface, then that's something<br>
someone would need to implement yet. :)<br>
<br>
I'm not *yet* sure we'd want to use dnsmasq instead of<br>
isc-dhcp-server by default, this would need some further research<br>
regarding possible drawbacks, package dependency changes,.... One of<br>
the major drawbacks of dnsmasq IMO is, that you need to pretty much<br>
always *restart* it - instead of reload without real downtime - for<br>
most of any config changes, like adding a new host. This shouldn't<br>
be much of a problem for grml-terminalserver itself though, while<br>
the proxydhcp feature sounds like a good argument in favor of<br>
dnsmasq for grml-terminalserver. Any further opinions?<br>
<br>
