Ivan Popov already identified one location where ip-addresses were compared using strcmp instead of memcmp, and servers got confused about their 'identity'. This one was fixed and I've grepped for other possible places where this mistake got copied to, but haven't found similar problems yet. However, Ivan reported that he still was seeing some problems, so there could likely be a similar problem somewhere else. JanReceived on 2002-03-06 13:18:18
