[comp.unix.i386] sockets / select

fischer@utower.gopas.sub.org (Axel Fischer) (12/31/89)

OS: 386/ix 2.02

Three quick questions:

a) Does anyone has actually done anything with the select() call 
provided in libinet.a (comes with TCP/IP Package)
A short prg I wrote to test it works fine - also the select testprg
from comp.unix.xenix posted a while ago to show a bug in Xenix select
works fine here.

b) Does anyone has a PD implementation of sockets for Sys V.3 ?
Of course, the sockets provided with TCP/IP 386/ix package only work
with AF_INET.
AF_UNIX is not implemented.
Does 386/ix 2.2 supports sockets with AF_UNIX ? Or Sys V.4 ?

c) I would like to establish a connection thru SL/IP and my high speed
modem (9600 bps).
How can I achieve that with 386/ix ? The current TCP/IP Release does not
support SL/IP. (Maybe in the future ? - I want that with dialer and all
the stuff :-)

Please reply via mail, if enough interest - I summarize and post.

-Axel
