Hi Tom,

LOpenTptInetMapper::NameToAddress() will throw exceptions if the toolbox function ::OTInetStringToAddress() fails. Have you thought about either catching this exception or otherwise trying to see what this function might be returning? Off hand it would seem to be worthwhile to implement a safer strategy, such as automatically retrying the name resolution several times before giving up - perhaps the name server is on the fritz? :^)

Good luck,
Bob Cook

Hey Folks,

We have released an application for the Mac OS 9.x and 10.x that implements
networking using Open Transport (OT). Below you can see code that we have
developed for mapping host name to IP. Every once and a while we will get a
report that this code generates an exception on some Mac OS 10.x boxes.
Anyone have any idea why?
