Please note - I need a sample code that uses Open Transport. I am
pretty aware that there is a sample at the Apple web site named
"Simple Ping", but it's done using BSD sockets. I would prefer to
avoid digging too deep into that sort of things, although I know that
I will have to unless I have found what I am looking for.
If you want to support machines running Mac OS X outside of Classic
mode,
the Open Transport sample code won't work.
Thus folks like me have had to completely rewrite our software for Mac
OS X.
But what should I do to provide compatibility with both Mac OS 9 and X?
I thought Open Transport was the right decision, and I still think it
is, but as long as I do not have to ping. Am I right?
In other words, if I do, say, only FTP transfers, can I use OT and
still be sure that my Carbon application works on both Mac OS 9 and X?
If I still have to ping hosts - what should I use on Mac OS X instead
of Open Transport? I have already got used to idea of having a notifier
that tells me when something happens on the network. I would like to
use this paradigm further on. If I use BSD sockets, I will have to
implement a kind of a notifier by myself.
Maybe there is some other way?

Igor
