.... I am getting a bit tired of those pesky DNSmasq entries in my syslog file, they fill it up about weekly, wash other stuff out of view on a tail. Is there any way to suppress them. or else increase their lease time so that they happen less frequently ? Having a finite lease time for a VM seems nonsensical, it can't go anywhere or disconnect (obviously) .... I tried restarting DNSmasq, but it said 'Socket busy' or some such & didn't restart. Someone on another list said that DNSmasq was/is in fact started by libvirt/KVM/QEMU, & I poked around in the various /etc/sysconfig files, but couldn't find anything related to DNSmasq, whatever options it is started with seem to be hardwired or compiled into one of the pertinent executables .... FC 14, 64 bit, terminally patched up, libvirt 0.8.3-10.fc14 64-bit, qemu-KVM 2:0.13.0-1.fc14 64-bit .... TIA ....
