It's supposed to be sys/socket.h It would be enough to create the socket, but it might not be enough to do anything useful with it :) Depending on how barebones your name/IP address maniupulation is to be. For example, the HP-UX 11.11 manpage for getaddrinfo() also suggests including netdb.h. Or if you are still using gethostbyaddr() (should migrate, BTW) that would add netinet/in.h to netdb.h and socket.h. rick jones -- oxymoron n, commuter in a gas-guzzling luxury SUV with an American flag these opinions are mine, all mine; HP might not want them anyway... :) feel free to post, OR email to rick.jones2 in hp.com but NOT BOTH...

It's what you do with it that matters. By the way, your clock is an hour fast. -- Ian Collins |
