Static IP with dnsmasq

[v1pEr]

I'm running dnsmasq on my router/server now but I want to give some clients a specific IP and others an ip from a limited range.

So I configured my dnsmasq as instructed by the comments:

[energyman76b]

dhcp-range=192.168.0.200,192.168.0.250,24h
dhcp-host=00:23:54:7C:C6:0B,elise,192.169.0.10,24h

well, your range is from 200 to 250 but you try to assign 10. What happens if you change either your range or the assigned ip to something like 220?

I noticed too and changed it so the static ip's are in the range, but to no avail. Also according to the documentation it should work outside the range:

since I don't have windows .. only a linux box which gets the right ip (the network with windows boxes is served by isc dhcp)... are you sure that the windows box gets its ip from your dnsmasq running box? What does your log say about this?

I have a very similar config, and it works fine. (only difference, is that I specify the mask in the dhcp range, but that should not be required)

Maybe dnsmasq thinks the reserved address is already in use. Check the /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases file, and if there is an entry for your reserved address, delete it. (you might need to restart dnsmasq after)
