[dnutan (Marc)]

samba is using the port for dns

[Otabek_Abdumurodov]

So I can’t use dnsmasq?

[mrmarkuz (Markus Neuberger)]

Not together as samba and dnsmasq both provide DNS on the default DNS port.

You could add a NS8 node for samba or let the router provide DNS and DHCP.

[davidep (Davide Principi)]

Samba and DNSmasq can run on the same node only if the DNS switch is off (Samba holds port 53). It is a scenario where Samba is the LAN DNS and DNSmasq plays the role of DHCP server only.
