This patch will break backward compatability with existing scripts. Since it is an easy matter to call inet_aton() on the buffer, and then call gethostbyname() only if inet_aton() returns INADDR_NONE (which would allow either a host name or an IP address to be used), please use this approach instead.
This also implies minor modification to the usage message and the man page, but you are hacking them up anyway. Thanks, -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
