Could chronyd not be made to pay attention to the TTL of the IPs it resolves?
That would /truly/ be "using IP to make that association".

What is the "TTL of the IPs it resolves"?
Let me be clearer, then.

Every domain name has a TTL, short for "time to live". When chrony resolves a domain name to its IP, could it not be made to abide by this TTL and re-resolve the domain name when it expires? This is the way that every other domain resolver in the world works, and is the fundamental underpinning of the Domain Name System.
