I forgot bind-interfaces. Any chance of referencing it near the listen part of the config?
Comment 2 Douglas Schilling Landgraf 2012-04-20 12:36:44 UTC 
It's not really required since there is dnsmasq documentation explaining how the config file works.

Thanks!
Comment 3 Need Real Name 2012-04-20 13:09:38 UTC 
My suggestion was to improve the documentation by mentioning bind-interfaces near listen-address...
