[Olsr-users] nameservice plugin [solved]

[Markus Kittenberger]

imho i don´t think the new text is more unambiguous as the old,..

in both texts i do not read that the dns server has to be on the node/ip
that announces it,..

furthermore i do not see a reason why the dns has to be on the node itself,
as if the node does an hna aswell the dns can be anywhere behind it i
guess,..

(but i do not know this plugin, ..)
