gethostbyname() returns null on errors, including temporary errors.What
does your error-checking code look like?
well kinda simple, i just return on an empty value
hostent *myhostent=gethostbyname(p); if(!myhostent){
return pxok; }
...but thanks to this post i found some error-info functions
hostent *myhostent=gethostbyname(p); if(!myhostent){
pxmye pxad4(&e,"error gethostbyname ",(pxn)h_errno,"
",hstrerror(h_errno)) pxlg2err(&e) return pxok;
}
lets wait and see what these report...
