Dnsmasq, could this be a problem/security risk ?

[peteredhair]

I've intalled the latest firmware release from Oleg 1.7.5.6-2.

On the log i found this after boot:

Jan 1 00:00:23 WL500g daemon.warn dnsmasq[525]: failed to drop root privs

I'm asking because i really don't know if this is ok or not, but sounded like it could be an error ou security risk.

Is it ok ?

Thanks
Pete

For now this is left as is and is mostly ok and expected. Probably this will be fixed in the future.

Ok, thanks Oleg, for your reply and your work.
