Enable DNSMASQ

Post by ripmyundies »

Hi all

I've just installed Gargoyle 1.2.5 (since this is the latest stable)
But, I can't figure how how to enable/turn on DNSMASQ

There was no file /etc/dnsmasq.conf, I tired creating one (with script) and rebooting but still no good.

I have used this with Tomato but want to move to Gargoyle because it has a much better IP Accounting capability (tomato has none)

Help! Can't see any documentation on this.....

You should switch to v1.3.16 because even though it is not listed as a "stable version" it is much better than v1.2.5.

To your question dnsmasq is the default (and only) dhcp service in v1.3.16 and I do not know about v1.2.5. The file /etc/dnsmasq.conf also exists in v1.3.16.
