      As per Jim's advice in this thread, I'm starting a new topic here…

      My logs are filling up with the error:
      dhcpleases: Could not deliver signal HUP to process because its pidfile does not exist, No such process.

      @jimp:

      The problem with dhcpleases was fixed long ago - what you are seeing is an issue with running unbound, and should be in a new thread.

      Not sure how that one will be worked around. The DHCP lease registration program is trying to signal dnsmasq about the update but since you're running unbound and not dnsmasq, it can't send a HUP signal.

      The easy way would be to have unbound write its pid file to what dnsmasq was using (presuming that the DNS forwarder is disabled when unbound is on).

      This is more of just a heads up for you Warren…. if there's anything I can do or anything you recommend I try I'm completely willing to give it a shot.

      Here is a glimpse at my current setup:
      **2.1-DEVELOPMENT (i386)
      built on Mon Sep 5 04:07:51 EDT 2011

      Unbound 1.4.12_03**
      DNSSEC - enabled
      forwarding mode - not enabled
      Private Address support - enabled
      Register DHCP static mappings - enabled
      TXT Comment Support - enabled
      Cache Restoration Support - enabled
      Statistics & Extended Statistics - enabled
      Cumulative Statistics - enabled

      System : DNS Forwarder - obviously not enabled

            apologies for the delay. I have done a fix for this, so just update your package.

                Just FYI… I updated my Unbound package, but am still getting the HUP errors in syslog.

                Is there anything else you would like me to try?

                    Hrmm ok, ill take a further look into it. I dont make use of dhcpleases and figured i would try fix and hope for the best :) but apparently that was a mistake. Let me setup something this side and will let you know.

                    Btw i have updated the package to 1.4.13 and added support for IPv6 ACLs if you make use of the IPv6 codebase.

                                        so far so good for me as well… normally by now I would have a screen full of HUP errors.

                                        Thanks Warren!
