58
The
59
.Fn getnetent ,
60
.Fn getnetbyname ,
61
and
62
.Fn getnetbyaddr
63
functions
64
each return a pointer to an object with the
65
following structure
66
containing the broken-out
67
fields of a line in the network data base,
68
.Pa /etc/networks .
69
.Bd -literal -offset indent

struct  netent {
71
        char            *n_name;        /* official name of net */
72
        char            **n_aliases;    /* alias list */
73
        int             n_addrtype;     /* net number type */
74
        unsigned long   n_net;          /* net number */
75
};

.Ed

The members of this structure are:
79
.Bl -tag -width n_addrtype
80
.It Fa n_name
81
The official name of the network.
82
.It Fa n_aliases
83
A zero terminated list of alternate names for the network.
84
.It Fa n_addrtype
85
The type of the network number returned; currently only AF_INET.
86
.It Fa n_net
87
The network number.  Network numbers are returned in machine byte
88
order.
89
.El

.Pp
91
The
92
.Fn getnetent
93
function
94
reads the next line of the file, opening the file if necessary.
95
.Pp
96
The
97
.Fn setnetent
98
function
99
opens and rewinds the file.  If the
100
.Fa stayopen
101
flag is non-zero,
102
the net data base will not be closed after each call to
103
.Fn getnetbyname
104
or
105
.Fn getnetbyaddr .
106
.Pp
107
The
108
.Fn endnetent
109
function
110
closes the file.
111
.Pp
112
The
113
.Fn getnetbyname
114
function
115
and
116
.Fn getnetbyaddr
117
sequentially search from the beginning
118
of the file until a matching
119
net name or
120
net address and type is found,
121
or until
122
.Dv EOF
123
is encountered. The
124
.Fa type
125
must be
126
.Dv AF_INET .
127
Network numbers are supplied in host order.

.Sh HISTORY
142
The
143
.Fn getnetent ,
144
.Fn getnetbyaddr ,
145
.Fn getnetbyname ,
146
.Fn setnetent ,
147
and
148
.Fn endnetent
149
functions appeared in
150
.Bx 4.2 .
151
.Sh BUGS
152
The data space used by
153
these functions is static; if future use requires the data, it should be
154
copied before any subsequent calls to these functions overwrite it.
155
Only Internet network
156
numbers are currently understood.
157
Expecting network numbers to fit
158
in no more than 32 bits is probably
159
naive.
