It became very apparent this code had not been used in a while
and was as a bit broken. So this patch set fixes the logic and
tries to make the code scale better.
The commit blobs in the set are relative to the 'tcpwrap'
branch in the git://linux-nfs.org/~steved/nfs-utils-exp.git
git tree.
Comments?
A general comment: This code will need support for IPv6 addresses.
Until it has it, perhaps we should add some logic to configure.ac that
prevents the use of tcpwrappers when --enable-ipv6 is in effect.
