- Hi,
-
- Sorry about this, but anybody who has grabbed a copy of this up to now
- has got an old version. It works but lacks much of the functionality.
-
- Demon should move the new version soon, I hope! I'll make another announcement
- when they have. If you want to check yourselves, the new version will be date
- stamped March 1994 instead of February 1994.
-
- Sorry for the inconvenience.
- David

- Subject: Winsock Archie Client released
-
- I ve just uploaded a new version of WSARCHIE to /incoming on ftp.demon.co.uk
- It should end up in /pub/ibmpc/winsock/apps/wsarchie/wsarchie.zip sometime
- today.
-
- WSARCHIE is a Winsock Compliant Archie Client.
-
- Q. What is an Archie Client?
-
- A. An archie client is a program run on your machine which can perform archie
- queries on an Archie Server.
-
- Q. Why use an Archie Client?
-
- A. Using an Archie Client reduces the overhead on the Archie server and means
- that it can do it's job faster. Also this archie client can be set up to use
- WS_FTP to automatically retrieve files.
-
- This version has the following features:
-
- 1. Can restrict the match domain at the archie client end
-
- 2. Queue position when query is initially queued is shown.
-
- 3. Directorys can be expanded by double clicking on the directory.
-
- 4. Can be configured to use WS_FTP to download found files.
-
- This program may be used by any one without charge, but I would like to hear
- from anyone who does use it, my email address is david@maxwell.demon.co.uk.
-
- Regards
- David Woakes

- Subject: WINSOCK.DLL - Determining IP address
-
- I'm just starting out programming with the WINSOCK.DLL. I've got a few files
- from rhino.microsoft.com, and did a LOT of reading, but the documentation does
- not seem to be that good (well, to me).
-
- Anyway, I'm trying to take a string (such as 'oak.oakland.edu') and determine
- it's numeric IP address (141.210.10.117) as a small excersize for myself to
- get started. I've gotten a small program that uses WSAStartup to determine the
- number of sockets available (szMaxSockets), etc. Then, I use GetHostByName to
- fill out a HostEnt record.
-
- The information in WINSOCK.DOC (rhino.microsoft.com:/Specification/winsock.DOC
- I think) is not to clear on the information of this record. I assume that the
- h_Addr_List field contains a list of IP addresses (which I guess is what I'm
- looking for). What format is this in? I cannot seem to be able to extract this
- information correctly. Either the numbers are totally wrong from what they
- should be, or produce a general protection fault.
-
- Could someone please offer an explanation or pointers? I'm programming using
- Borland Pascal v7.0.
-
- Thanks,
- Steve
