Hi,
i am trying to install a dnsmasq in a jail. I have deselected NAT and VIMAGE option for the jail and installed it.
I have bind it to the jail's IP address, and it currently resolves the DNS queries quite well. But it still does not serve DHCP.
I am assuming that the jail network mechanism works on TCP layer 4, so maybe DHCP is not forwarded to the jail by the host? Was the deselection of VIMAGE a good idea then?
Do you know how to configure the jail and the dnsmasq so it can work as a DHCP server too? Maybe i have to enable VIMAGE, but i don't know how to do this after the creation of the jail.
Or is it because i did not explicitly specify a MAC for the jail?
Please help.
EDIT: When writing this post, the dnsmasq seems to have gotten a DHCP request, and served it quite well. I still don't know why some machines in my network are successful with DHCP request and some are not.
