Subject: [musl] hostname is using a case sensitive search in function name_from_hosts
Date: Thu, 9 Jun 2022 20:42:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAKzsc6d0QSFxQKeGjQETz3QkPEkBwePZe+8scKA1p9RcB8f=8g@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
I discovered that the function name_from_hosts parses the /etc/hosts
file and does a case sensitive search for a name.
Sometimes I encounter mixed upper and lowercase hostnames in a /etc/hosts file.
It would be easier if the function searches for the name in a case
insensitive way....
By changing line 68 in src/network/lookup_name.c
for(p=line+1; (p=strstr(p, name)) &&
to:
for(p=line+1; (p=strcasestr(p, name)) &&
That would resolve the problem.
Hans
