- Hello,
-
- we want to use the Winsock DLL delivered together with SunSelect's PC-NFS
- Programmer's Toolkit 4.0 over PC-NFS Version 5.0. However, we run into problems
- when performing the name-to-address resolution by calling the functions
- gethostbyname() (error = WSANO_RECOVERY) and gethostbyaddr() (error =
- WSAEINVAL).
-
- Side-remarks:
-
- (1) Performing the corresponding test cases of the Microsoft Windows Socket API
- Tester (WSAT) for these two functions leads to a system crash !
- (2) Filling the 'hostent' structure "by hand" with the complete information
- and calling further Winsock functions with this structure works. Of course,
- this is not an acceptable work-around !
-
- In order to shorten the time for the analysis of this problem, I'd like to know:
-
- - Does anybody have experience in using the PC-NFS Winsock DLL ?
- - Is the problem known and how can we correct or surround it ?
- - If it is a problem of the Winsock DLL:
- * Is there a more recent version ?
- * Are there further Winsock DLL implementations running over PC-NFS 5.0 ?
-
- Any help would be appreciated.
-
- Best regards
-
- Thomas
