Right now the driver uses inet_ntoa(), which I _thought_ was standard
(all of the systems' man pages I checked had it, and preferred it over
other functions). However, Solaris does not have it. I've been idly
working on an alternative, but I do not have enough reference to come up
with a solution. I primarily need more details on what exactly
inet_makeaddr() expects, and how to get "a.b.c.d" to the form it expects..
(sigh)
Any help would be appreciated :)
(I think I will just code up a drop in inet_ntoa() for solaris, once I
figure out the best way to do it).
