<p>The <em>getnetbyname()</em> function is used to retrieve information about a
|
||
|
network. The information is retrieved from the network database file.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>There are two versions of the API, as shown above. The base i5/OS API uses BSD 4.3
|
||
|
structures and syntax. The other uses syntax and structures compatible with the UNIX 98
|
||
|
programming interface specifications. You can select the UNIX 98 compatible
|
||
|
interface with the <a href="_xopen_source.htm">_XOPEN_SOURCE</a> macro.</p>

||

<h3>Parameters</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dl>
|
||
|
<dt><strong>network_name</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dd>(Input) The pointer to the character string that contains the name of the
|
||
|
network for which information is to be retrieved.</dd>
|
||
|
</dl>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
<h3>Authorities</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>No authorization is required.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Return Value</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><em>getnetbyname()</em> returns a pointer. Possible values are:</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>NULL (unsuccessful)<br>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>p (successful), where p is a pointer to <strong>struct
|
||
|
netent</strong>.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The structure <strong>struct netent</strong> is defined in
|
||
|
<strong><netdb.h></strong>.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<pre>
|
||
|
struct netent {
|
||
|
char *n_name;
|
||
|
char **n_aliases;
|
||
|
int n_addrtype;
|
||
|
unsigned long n_net;
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><em>n_name</em> points to the character string that contains the name of the
|
||
|
network. <em>n_aliases</em> is a pointer to a NULL-terminated array of
|
||
|
alternate names for the network. <em>n_addrtype</em> contains the address type
|
||
|
of the network. <em>n_net</em> is the 32-bit network address (an IP address
|
||
|
with host part set to zero).</p>
|
||

<ol>
|
||
|
<li>The iSeries Navigator or the following CL commands can be
|
||
|
used to access the network database file:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>WRKNETTBLE (Work with Network Table Entries)<br>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>ADDNETTBLE (Add Network Table Entry)<br>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>RMVNETTBLE (Remove Network Table Entry)</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>The pointer returned by <em>getnetbyname()</em> points to static storage
|
||
|
that is overwritten on subsequent calls to the <em>getnetbyname()</em>,
|
||
|
<em>getnetbyaddr()</em>, or <em>getnetent()</em> functions.<br>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>When the network information is obtained from the network database file,
|
||
|
the file is opened and the network information is retrieved (if it exists) from
|
||
|
the file. The file is then closed only if a <em>setnetent()</em> with a nonzero
|
||
|
parameter value was not previously done.<br>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>A coded character set identifier (CCSID) of 65535 for the job requests that
|
||
|
no database translation be performed. For translation to occur for the network
|
||
|
name specified by the <em>network_name</em> parameter, and for the network
|
||
|
names returned in the netent structure, the job CCSID must be something other
|
||
|
than 65535.<br>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>Do not use the <em>getnetbyname()</em> function in a multithreaded
|
||
|
environment. See the multithread alternative <em>getnetbyname_r()</em>
|
||
|
function.<br><br></li>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li>When you develop in C-based languages and an application is compiled with
|
||
|
the _XOPEN_SOURCE macro defined to the value 520 or greater, the <em>getnetbyname()</em>
|
||
|
API is mapped to <em>qso_getnetbyname98()</em>.</li>
