             Bug #: 14520
           Summary: Wildcards in hosts file
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: mightyiampresence@gmail.com
                CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


It would be great to be able to use wildcards in the hosts file like:

"127.0.0.1 *.localhost".

This could serve some flexibility for web developers on their local test
machines and such in testing name based virtual hosts in their system. May have
other uses...

Thanks,
Shahar
