I know you like to kill the server off if theres any kind of configuration parsing error; but possibly duplicate/invalid clients is one of the exceptions where it might be better to complain bitterly...
This goes for invalid clients, invalid home servers, databases that are down, etc. The list is nearly endless. It's difficult to write all of the code to catch all of those error cases. And what does your policy do when it says "proxy to FOO", and FOO doesn't exist? Does your local configuration handle that correctly, or does something else go wrong? It's easier to force people to have working configurations. Alan DeKok.
