the first function call in the ping's source is a call to
"gethostbyname()" - and returns null. In the manual pages of gethostbyname()
is a cross reference to "named(8)". I guess that means "name daemon"???? I
cannot find on my system neither a manual entry for "named" nor such a file
nor process ("ps -ef|grep name").
My question: do I need this process?? And in the case I need it - where can
I get it from ?-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Auftrag von Ok Overbeek (mz) Gesendet: Samstag, 12.
