Simo
We're working on stuff from patch feedback.

Greg would like to not put gss_add_cred in the mech structure.

Simo
Having trouble running tests from home.
Greg
Maybe we should listen on localhost.
Simo Machine's hostname didn't reslove to its own IP address.
Greg
KDC doesn't listen on localhost because we use the same function to enumerate listening addresses as client uses to enumerate local IP addresses for requesting in a ticket (back when we still did addresses in ticket), so it skips loopback addresses.
Greg
gss_sample needs to talk to the machine it's running on, but can't use "localhost" due to sn2princ.
Tom
Would be good to sequence tests so most basic onces run first.
Greg
Top level? etc.
Simo
Could use a UDP echo server, or interface enumeration. [to discover whether things are misconfigured so that a host can't talk to itself using the name it believes is its hostname]
Greg
Client hosts might not have a working hostname that they're reachable on.
Tom
Policy extensibility... [Nico had some suggestions that still need some design refinement]
Simo
const?
Greg
not so useful on function parameters that are typedef names. [only affects the body of the function]
