I would suspect that the loopback mechanism would be implementation dependent, and that the method used on a particular system would provide valuable information. A usergroup such as stackoverflow would not likely have that information. Therefore this would seem to be the most accurate source for such information IMO. A short and reasonable answer would be beneficial to the group. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
