I already use the stock dnsmasq that comes with maemo.
Create your config file somewhere, my config file for the wifi interface is as simple as
I launch dnsmasq like this
The -I part is important.

Code:
dhcp-range=192.168.200.2,192.168.200.50,255.255.255.0,24h dhcp-option=3,192.168.200.1 dhcp-option=6,192.168.200.1 dhcp-leasefile=/tmp/dnsmasq.wlan0.leases
Code:
$ dnsmasq -a 192.168.200.1 -d -i wlan0 -z \ -C /path/to/dnsmasq.wlan0.conf -I lo -I usb0

Questions:
1. Why use the -d option ?
2. I assume i have to give the N900 a fixed IP ?
Thanks.
Just need to confirm if there is a way to run a DHCP server on the N900 to server IP's over Wi-Fi to other local devices ?
This package appears to have that feature but unsure if it will work or can be installed as is on an N900.

Anybody know ?
