Hi
Running OpenSim with MySQL as database engine, if in regions.ini the
value "ExternalHostName = SYSTEMIP" is changed to some hostname (e.g.
when running on a dyndns system), then the value of "serverIP" in the
table "regions" contains this hostname instead of it's IP. Would it be
possible to do some "gethostbyname" during region registering process to
insert always the IP address there?
I'm developing some web frontend extension and it would be an ideal
security enhancement to cross check requests (e.g. groups, profile or
search) if they come from a registered region or somewhere else.
Currently I need to do a regexp and if it fails a "gethostbyname" on
each single request to ensure it is valid which is a real performance
loss while doing that during registering the region wouldnt be.
