[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] need help with using KA9Q's programming interface

levie@udel.EDU (Stefan Levie) (07/28/89)

I am porting C code which uses the UNIX networking capabilities (sendto, socket,
etc.) to an IBM-PC using Phil Karns KA9Q programming interface, but am having
difficulty completely inderstanding the KA9Q software, esp the mbuf structure.
Has anyone ported code between these two interfaces or can help me understand
the KA9Q interface well enough to implement it.  On UNIX I am currently using
sendto, with the data, which is stored in a structure, passed via (char *).

Also in the documentation I have, it does not say which files are needed to just
give you the programming interface and not also telnet and ftp.  The only
makefile I have is for compiling the KA9Q executable (net.exe) of which I don't
need most of, I assume.

Thanks in advance,
