AcceptHostname resource

Sets an alternate name that is used to compare against the name returned in the host's TLS certificate. This is a default value; it can be overridden when connecting to a particular host by appending =acceptname to the hostname (see host name syntax).

This resource is meaningful only when the verifyHostCert resource is set to true.

This resource is useful when the host returns a name in its server certificate other than the name used to connect to it, or when a numeric host address must be used in place of a name to make the connection.
