https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=385255 User lnussel@novell.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=385255#c3 --- Comment #3 from Ludwig Nussel 2008-05-13 03:48:53 MST --- The X Session Management Library Documentation (eg http://lesstif.sourceforge.net/doc/super-ux/g1ae04e/chap12.html) says about the client id: "Note that once a client ID has been assigned to the client, the client keeps this ID indefinitely. If the client is terminated and restarted, it will be reassigned the same ID. It is desirable to be able to pass client IDs around from machine to machine, from user to user, and from session manager to session manager, while retaining the identity of the client. This, combined with the indefinite persistence of client IDs, means that client IDs need to be globally unique." IOW it doesn't say anything about DNS, hostnames or IP addresses. Considering the requirements for the client ID it may make sense to use libuuid (see man 3 uuid_generate) to generate (part of) the ID instead of using a custom method. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
