This is a spin-off of the thread in -security about: bin/22595: telnetd tricked into using arbitrary peer ip [.....] Still... If there *is* an API which would be common to both Solaris and FreeBSD, then it should be much easier to get third-party program authors to accept changes to use that API.
As for the best change to make, let me suggest that we basically follow both Matt's and Garrett's recommendations (which were made in other messages in the thread).
[.....]
I'm happy to bump UT_HOSTSIZE to 56 and plan to do so in 5 days if that's the concensus (and if nobody has done so already).
Garrett, would you mind looking at importing the Austin API for this ?
