Details:

secsss protocol as defined makes it very difficult to deal multi home
machines. Currently, secsss hostnames match however since hostnames are
looked up independently on client and server they will necessarily match on a
multi nic machine. Instead the clients should use getsockname to get outgoing
ip address and pass the ip address.  This address should match what
getpeername returns on the server side.  Please it is very important to put
into patch release.
