Details:
Hello,
It would be useful (for me) to have the peer's address (rather than hostname
from a reverse lookup) available for authorization decisions. The case I had
in mind was for "unix" protocol, but the addition of an element in
XrdSecEntity for all the authentication protocols might be useful. I would
not mind if the format was binary (e.g. a variety of sockaddr structure) or a
text representation of an ip address.
It'd be great if you could consider a way to have this available.
Thanks,
David
