Hi,
In inn 2.4.2, lib/sendpass.c, we have:
/* What server are we interested in? Default to the campus one. */
if (server == NULL
&& (server = innconf->server) == NULL)
return -1;
Some programs (for example backends/innxmit.c) rely on errno value,
when returned value is -1. Example:
if (NNTPsendpassword(REMhost, From, To) < 0 || GotAlarm) {
i = errno;
syswarn("cannot authenticate with %s", REMhost);
syslog(L_ERROR, CANT_AUTHENTICATE,
REMhost, GotAlarm ? "timeout" : strerror(i));
/* Don't send quit; we want the remote to print a message. */
SMshutdown();
exit(1);
}
Can this be considered a bug?
