@jvonau it's not just ./iiab-network, but also now "iiab-install --reinstall" that can no longer be run on Ubuntu 16.04 sadly:

TASK [4-server-options : Restart dnsmasq] **************************************
fatal: [127.0.0.1]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Unable to restart service dnsmasq: Job for dnsmasq.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See \"systemctl status dnsmasq.service\" and \"journalctl -xe\" for details.\n"}

Oddly while systemctl restart dnsmasq doesn't work... chaining together systemctl stop dnsmasq followed by systemctl start dnsmasq does generally work (!)

Question: is there any harm if I revise https://github.com/iiab/iiab/blob/master/roles/captive-portal/tasks/main.yml#L127-L131 to use the 2-steps above instead of the dnsmasq restart? Or is another surgical strike truly needed, e.g. from your #1311 or any other? (Not that Ubuntu 16.04 support needs to be comprehensive [it certainly doesn't!] but if Anish can still use it a tiny bit longer why not.)

Amazingly ./iiab-network also now seems to complete on Ubuntu 16.04 — so ./iiab-install and ./iiab-install --reinstall can now run to completion (on Ubuntu 16.04) for the first time in many months!
