Hi.
Can be, but as you mentioned OS resolver can be configured to not use
dns at all. So much more appropriate will be pam_try_hostname if we want
to be more accurately.
But for me pamusedns, pam_use_hostname or pam_try_hostname all are
correct as either need to use some try to resolve ip address
irrespectively OS resolver use dns or not - I mean getnameinfo() not
give you such information if OS resolver use dns or not.
No to drug the discussion I can change pamusedns to pam_use_hostname if
you prefer.
