I don't believe there is one, because that knob was never envisioned as being application-controllable. I'm kind of curious how such a patch could even work, and I'd question whether it's a good idea for some applications to turn off rdns while others don't. Whether "rdns = false" will work is complicated by the odd, probably buggy behavior of getaddrinfo in some (maybe all) versions of glibc. glibc does a PTR lookup for AI_CANONNAME if AI_ADDRCONFIG or hints.ai_family is also used. We worked around this behavior in 1.10.2 by changing how we call getaddrinfo(). ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
