Hi all,

I'd like to try out the nameserver functions of DNSMASQ in a VPS, however it doesn't want to start up at all. when the initscript is run it seems to hang (without failing) and the following message is logged to messages.

"dnsmasq: netlink returns error: Address family not supported by protocol"

I'm not trying to run the dhcp server functionality of dnsmasq (that would require the broadcasting+veth config) just a caching nameserver.

The only information I could find on this error was a german page http://people.debian.org/~terpstra/message/20070125.182810.5 413aaf5.en.html which mentioned problems in regards to virtual servers, hence my post here Smile

my setup: centos 4.4_x64, latest stable openvz smp-kernel.
