One big difference is that the MIT Hesiod information databases differ from what DECathena uses. One big difference is in the service hesiod area: MIT hesiod: % hesinfo telnet service telnet 23 tcp DECathena hesiod: % hesinfo telnet services telnet 23/tcp % hesinfo 23/tcp services telnet 23/tcp % hesinfo 23 services telnet 23/tcp This makes name lookup simple -- juse pretend whatever is returned is from a file and go. ;) The revelent files are on tbird.cc.iastate.edu:/pub/386bsd/libc-hesiod. Get them all, and read the README there for installation info. -- -- Michael Graff Iowa State University Computation Center Project Vincent 215 Durham voice: (515) 294-4994 explorer@iastate.edu Ames, IA 50010 fax: (515) 294-1717 gg.mlg@isumvs.bitnet
