 Hrmm, I see what you mean. Instead, I could use the same dbase settings
as peer_auth_realm and have a text field. Its a bit clunky and would
need more instructions but more importantly, can I still query from
within LOAD_PREFERENCES to check this value in proxy.cfg? ... and this
value can be available to change via API right?
