So I was wallowing through sbr/client.c, and I came across some weird
code that kicks into place when you prefix a \01 in front of a hostname
in the "servers" line in mts.conf. It turns out that when you do that,
the code in client.c calls getnetbyname() on this name and then
iterates over all of the hosts available (using gethostent()) and tries
to connect to every server on the named network.
Yuck, embedded non-printable characters?! Please do get rid of this.
I can't say it seems very useful (how hard can it be to just list the
servers to try explicitly?)
