| Summary | 0003314: Make nss plugin gethostbyaddr work | ||||
| Description | Currently the nss plugin always returns UNAVAIL (because NORETURN would cause DNS reverse lookups to fail) The stubs of functions are already implemented, but a ip => zone/name mapping is not possible using the current api. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

I don't think we should do a reverse lookup for IP addresses. GNS's datastore is virtually guaranteed to not know the answer, and if we hijack that API the user has no longer a way to specify that he wants the IP to reversed via DNS. |
