(no subject)

Hi again,

I tried to write such a profile (I called it FORCE ;) but I found that
using server_init is not sufficient because it is called after a start
request of a client is received for the profile. But if a client does
not support the force profile it will never be called and thus -
assuming the server accepts other profiles - the client can start a
session using server supported profiles.

What I'm now thinking of is to extend rr_init to check for required
profiles.

What do you think of such a solution? What are the pros and cons from
your point of view? Or is there another solution for this problem I
didn't think of yet?

Any other comments? (Of course I would publish the patches on this list
if I do it this way so Codefactory may incorporate them into the rr
distribution ;)

TIA

Regards,
Sandro
