We are trying to use Data Link Provider Interface (DLPI) to send data
without TCP/IP headers & trailers to a specific machine on our network.
However, we don't know how to specify the machine's address within the
putmsg function. Does anybody have example code showing how this is done?
Thanks.

1. connection oriented and connectionless sockets and system-functions
Hi,
I hope not to post an off-topic email here. I have read in
Rich Stevens' Unix network programming to use
recvfrom() and sendto() for connectionless sockets (e.g. UDP
connections).
I wonder if:
recvfrom(), sendto(), recv() and send() can be used for both
connection-oriented and connectionless sockets.
Hmm, let me put this question like that: Which of the 4 named functions
can be used for which of the two connection types.
If this is off-topic here, I appologize and would be grateful to know
where i could post this.
Thanks in advance and best regards
-Richard
