Hi,

I install OpenWRT 7.09 in my ASUS WL-500GP.
Now I want to run OpenVPN in port 53 UDP, but it conflict with dns created by dnsmasq.

QUESTIONS:
1. How do I disable dns port created by dnsmasq but still enable dhcp.
2. anyone have sample fw rule for openvpn in port 53 udp

thanks

Probably a bit late, but I hate finding threads with no answers. Granted, most people have probably moved onto Kamikaze.

In dnsmasq.conf:

port=0

I found this useful for using maradns for dns while still using dnsmasq for dhcp.

The discussion might have continued from here.
