All releases of Dnsmasq


Release Notes: This release has a lot of extra work on the DHCPv6 code that debuted in 2.60. Many bugs have been fixed and extra features added. The router advertisement feature is now much more configurable, and there's a mode that allows dnsmasq to make AAAA DNS records for hosts that use SLAAC IPv6 addresses and DHCP IPv4 addresses.


Release Notes: This release adds major new features, Lua scripting, and DHCPv6. The scripting interface has been expanded to allow DHCP scripting in Lua. The Lua interpreter is part of the dnsmasq process and remains resident, giving global variables that are persistent between calls to the script. The DHCP subsystem has been expanded to include support for DHCP for IPv6 addresses, as well as IPv6 Router advertisement.


Release Notes: This release addresses a couple of issues that have surfaced with dnsmasq-2.58, which could cause problems at startup with IPv6 link-local addresses. One is a regression in dnsmasq, and the other stems from a change in the behaviour of bridge interfaces in recent Linux kernels.


Release Notes: The usual mix of bugfixes and feature enhancements. There are fixes for a couple of nasty TFTP bugs, so TFTP users should upgrade. Notable amongst the enhancements is support for Linux conntrack. Dnsmasq can now copy conntrack marks from incoming DNS queries to the upstream connections used to answer them. This feature could be useful for bandwidth accounting, captive portals, and the like. A similar feature has been implemented in Squid 2.2. There are also fixes for large (thousands of leases) DHCP systems and DHCP via relay.


Release Notes: This release fixes a couple of regressions in the previous release and adds support for the Android platform.


Release Notes: This release has some bugfixes, including a possible crash when --dhcp-script is in use. It also includes enhancements such as IPv6 TFTP support, Solaris zone support, and better DNSSEC support.


Release Notes: This release corrects a couple of crash bugs in release 2.53 and gets the version numbering straight (2.53 identified itself as 2.54, so there is no version 2.54).


Release Notes: This release features a large number of new configuration features and minor bugfixes. Highlights of the feature additions are a rationalization of the DHCP tag system and extensions to the anti-dns-rebind controls.


Release Notes: This release adds support for RFC 3925 vendor identifying vendor options. It also has some minor enhancements to the PXE subsystem and external hooks for tracking DHCP leases. There are fixes to allow compilation on recent Solaris releases and enhancements to the MacOS X port.


Release Notes: The main change for this version is support for internationalized DNS (IDN). Non-ASCII characters in domain names found in /etc/hosts, /etc/ethers, and /etc/dnsmasq.conf will be correctly handled by translation to punycode, as specified in RFC3490. There are also minor enhancements to TFTP and PXE handling, and a bugfix that re-enables DHCP relay agent options.
