NAME

       putshort - Places short byte quantities into the byte stream

LIBRARY

       Standard C Library (libc.a)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <netinet/in.h>
       #include <arpa/nameser.h>
       #include <resolv.h>
       void putshort (
	    unsigned short short_arg,
	    u_char *message_ptr );

PARAMETERS

       Represents a 16-bit integer.  Represents a pointer into the byte stream.

DESCRIPTION

       The putshort() function puts short byte quantities into the byte stream or arbitrary byte boundaries.

       The putshort() function is one of a set of subroutines that form the resolver, a set of functions that resolve domain names.  Global infor-
       mation that is used by the resolver functions is kept in the _res data structure.  The  /include/resolv.h file contains the _res  structure
       definition.

FILES

       Lists the name server and domain name.

NAME

       dn_skipname - Skips over a compressed domain name

LIBRARY

       Standard C Library (libc.a)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>

       #include <netinet/in.h>

       #include <arpa/nameser.h>

       #include <resolv.h>

       int dn_skipname (
	   u_char *comp_domain_name,
	   u_char *end_of_message );

PARAMETERS

       Specifies a pointer to a compressed domain name.  Specifies the end of the compressed domain name address.

DESCRIPTION

       The dn_skipname() function skips over a compressed domain name.

       The  dn_skipname()  function  is  one of a set of subroutines that form the resolver, a set of functions that resolve domain names.  Global
       information that is used by the resolver functions is kept in the _res data structure.  The include/resolv.h file contains the _res  struc-
       ture definition.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon  successful  completion,  the  dn_skipname()  function  returns the size of the compressed domain name.  If the dn_skipname() function
       fails, -1 is returned.

FILES

       Defines name server and domain name structures, values, and constants.
