Looks nice! Same comment as earlier: file names should appear once.

The newly added dnsmasq-serice-type should be nested into the existing
'defvar' for it.

Then, I'd just write: Two actions are provided:

s/is usually//  (is it configurable to be elsewhere -- I don't think
so?)

Please mind maximum 80 columns coding style; I believe this is also to
be formatted as Texinfo so you could use @file{/etc/hosts} and
@file{/etc/ethers} for example, and @option for each listed options.
Instead of emphasising with full caps, you can use @emph{not}.

That looks like a useful series.  Could you please send a v4,
integrating my requested changes?
