Re: dnsmasq dhcp failure

Hi ET,

I have run leaf for a very long time, normally on fast hardware with plenty of 
memory.  

I've never seen dnsmasq not serve requests or allocate leases.   

I think dnsmasq fits the smaller network that is a bit complex scenario very 
well.  Making it more complex would be a mistake as would making it more like 
commodity routers which have many functions now.


cheers
Marko
