Why does the program below produce radically different results when linked either (a) with just the libc on FreeBSD 4.7 or else (b) with the BIND library (libbind.a) from the ISC 8.x.x BIND release, and then with libc?
Is FreeBSD's gethostbyaddr(3) mishandling the classless in-addr.arpa delegation in the case of 62.23.166.218 ? ====================================================================== #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <arpa/inet.h> #include <netdb.h> int main (void) { auto struct in_addr addr; register struct hostent const *hp; inet_aton ("62.23.166.218", &addr); hp = gethostbyaddr ((char const *)&addr, sizeof addr, AF_INET); if (hp) printf ("%s\n", hp->h_name); else printf ("No rDNS for %s\n", inet_ntoa (addr)); return 0; } _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
