Description David Spurek 2015-01-07 12:47:47 UTC

Description of problem:
add description for ipaddr = hostname from DNS with A and AAAA entries to /etc/raddb/sites-available/default.

When hostname is used in ipaddr and hostname has A and AAAA entries in DNS then A entry is used.

/etc/gai.conf doesn't affect that as FreeRADIUS does its own preference and seems to always request specific address family first.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
