Hey,
i have a project for designing a p2p network.I will receive messages

You should probably use something like XDR to marshall the data.  This will
ensure that things like byte order are handled properly.

1. Struct sockaddr_in is missing!!!!

I use SPARC Workstation running Solaris 2.4 and gcc, but why there is
only
struct sockaddr only and no sockaddr_in!!!!

2. Solid State HDD

3. testing struct sockaddr_in for equality...

4. Linux supports VFAT ? or it will ?

5. struct sockaddr_in

6. pnpdump fails (SuSE 6.0)

7. recvfrom mis-populates sin_port in sockaddr_in struct

8. Telnet - chat(1U) like functionality wanted...

9. struct sockaddr_in

10. [PATCH] struct kernel_stat -> struct cpu_stat[NR_CPUS]

11. converting 'struct stat' to 'struct __old_kernel_stat'?

12. structs declared inside structs in /usr/include
