[Olsr-users] nameservice plugin question/problem

[Dave Rivenburg]

I am using olsr 0.6.0 with openwrt kamikaze 7.09 on a wrt54g with this configuration:

LoadPlugin "olsrd_nameservice.so.0.3"
{
    PlParam "sighup-pid-file" "/var/run/dnsmasq.pid"
    PlParam "interval" "30"
    PlParam "timeout" "300"
    PlParam "1.2.3.4" "host1"
}

This is what happens: in the /var/run/hosts_olsr file on the router running this configuration the address 1.2.3.4 gets assigned to host1, which is what I expected.  However, on remote nodes (using the same configuration only without the host1 line) the address for host1 is set to the address of the router instead of 1.2.3.4.

So, did I use the proper PlParam line?  Shouldn't remote nodes also use 1.2.3.4 for the address of host1?  Or do I misunderstand how this should work?

thanks,
dave
