Adblock fast / dnsmasq weird syslog entries

Installing and Using OpenWrt

Hi all,

My syslog is getting flooded with:

Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzzhas.com
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzzha.com
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzzakaito.com
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzz.divendesign.in
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzyjpmh.com
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzycj.com
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzyanhushi.com
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using only locally-known addresses for zzwpsm.cn
Tue Nov 12 16:37:23 2024 daemon.info dnsmasq[1]: using 151983 more local addresses

Why does adblock fast/dnsmasq put that in the syslog? :slightly_smiling_face:

Does somebody know why it does that?

This is on a GL.iNet GL-MT6000

What is in

ubus call system board

Those entries mean

server '/zzwpsm.cn/'

In config/dhcp file to block resolution of named domains.

It comes from dnsmasq on restart.

When you say flooded -- how often does that happen? Do you have anything adblock-fast or dnsmasq related in cron?

It is a normal occurence, the way adblock-fast blocks domain names.
