I installed Bind on CentOS7 and noticed that the DNSMasq which is already installed & running on the same port 53 where Bind runs. Looks like DNSMasq is default package comes up with CentOS.



Command - netstat -lnp|grep 53



I've few queries running in my mind -



  1. Is it a good idea to keep both packages which runs on same port 53, will it cause any issue?


  2. Is it ok to disable DNSMasq? if so, will it impact other functionlity? and how to permanently remove/disable DNSMasq?


Please can anyone provide some information on these tools, please



Thank you

          Only one service will be able to bind to port 53 at a time (on the same IP address)



          You should disable/uninstall DNSMasq if you want to run bind.



          You /etc/resolv.conf is probably set to localhost or 127.0.0.1, you will need to change this to point at an actual nameserver, or if you have bind configured to forward DNS queries then you can set /etc/resov.conf to the address bind is listening on.
