I also want to install OpenVPN in the same board, but when I try to restart the dnsmasq I get the following error :
sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart
[....] Restarting dnsmasq (via systemctl): dnsmasq.serviceJob for dnsmasq.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status dnsmasq.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Why is this happening ?
I can't handle dnsmasq separately ( of course as root ) ?
So far I haven't teased anything special, but I just want to restart the dnsmasq.
Thank you.
