I have included a small test program that shows the problem with
gethostbyaddr on Red Hat 4.0 if the file /etc/yp.conf has a valid NIS
server configured.
The output of this program should be:
hostent: tirania.nuclecu.unam.mx
Best wishes,
Miguel.
#include <endian.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netdb.h>
main ()
{
struct hostent *he;
unsigned int a;
if (BYTE_ORDER == LITTLE_ENDIAN)
a = 0xc81df884;
else
a = 0x84f81dc8;
he = gethostbyaddr (&a, 4, AF_INET);
if (!he){
printf ("your name server is not working, that query ought to work\n");
}
printf ("hostent: %s\n", he->h_name);
}
