ssh: suppress warning on identical names

Open eworm-de opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Running systemd-resolved on a linux host some synthetic records [0] are available, for example _gateway for all current default routing gateway addresses. Connecting to that name gives an error message:

ignoring bad CNAME "_gateway" for host "_gateway": domain name "_gateway" starts with invalid character

Let's suppress the message if cononical name and cname are identical.

Not quite sure this is the best and/or correct way to fix this. What exactly was the motivation for this error message?
