struct netent { char *n_name; /* official name of net */ char **n_aliases; /* alias list */ int n_addrtype; /* net number type */ uint32_t n_net; /* net number */ };
The members of this structure are:
n_name | |
The official name of the network. | |
n_aliases | |
A zero terminated list of alternate names for the network. | |
n_addrtype | |
The type of the network number returned; currently only AF_INET. | |
n_net | |
The network number. Network numbers are returned in machine byte order. | |
The getnetent() function reads the next line of the file, opening the file if necessary.
The setnetent() function opens and rewinds the file. If the stayopen flag is non-zero, the net data base will not be closed after each call to getnetbyname() or getnetbyaddr().
The endnetent() function closes the file.
The getnetbyname() function and getnetbyaddr() sequentially search from the beginning of the file until a matching net name or net address and type is found, or until EOF is encountered. The type argument must be AF_INET. Network numbers are supplied in host order.
