This means all the > acls that wants to specify hosts will have to specify host in hostNaem/IP > format. We can either make session.host return ip or host name or change the > authorizer to evaluate against all 3 “host/ip”, “host”, “IP”." > Jun suggested we use IP instead of hostname/IP. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
