exporting to a list of IPs

Hi.

Why is it that you cannot NFS export to a list of IPs and have exportfs leave the list of IPs in etab without converting over to FQDN?

In Changelog:

2001-09-20 NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
            Anne Milicia <milicia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

        * support/export/client.c (client_lookup) call gethostbyadd
        to make sure that we have a canonical hostname, even for
        dotted-quads

Why does mountd need to repeat the gethostbyname() lookup on every host even though exportfs already converted over to using hostname?

Thanks,

Jason.
