Hi,

Does anybody know of a library routine for determining
the TCP/IP broadcast address under SunOS 4.1.3? I guess
I am looking for something along the lines of gethostbyaddr(),
but any information would be much appreciated. BTW, not
all environments use the default x.x.x.255 broadcast
address as I had once thought myself.
