    7: Hello,
    8: 
    9: I recently needed a feature in dnsmasq for a very bizarre situation. I 
   10: placed a list of name servers in a special resolve file and told dnsmasq 
   11: to use that. But I wanted it to try requests in order and treat NXDOMAIN 
   12: requests as a failed tcp connection. I wrote the feature into dnsmasq 
   13: and it seems to work. I prepared a patch in the event that others might 
   14: find it useful as well.
   15: 
   16: Thanks and keep up the good work.
