Hope that anyone can help me. I am new to socket() programming. I try to connect to a tcp server. However my program fails when its get to gethostbyaddr() function. It keeps returning "null". My questions are: 1) Is there a difference between AF_INET and PF_INET? 2) The gethostbyaddr() returns "null" because it can't not see the tcp server IP on the network for some reason ?(eventhough I can ping or telnet to tcp server) Many thanks! peter. unsigned int addr; struct hostent *hp; SOCKET conn; conn=socket(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,IPPROTO_TCP); addr=inet_addr("10.23.50.133"); hp=gethostbyaddr((char*)&addr,sizeof(addr),AF_INET);

Can someone help me with the RS422 programing? I have a device that can be controlled via RS232 or RS422. I can write a program to control this device in RS232 mode. My question is, does this program still work if I switch the device to RS422 mode? What do I need to do to make this program work in RS422 mode? Do I need a RS232 - RS422 converter? thanks,peter.

Hi I wrote a dialog based program using mfc. When I run it from another computer, the program indicates "can not find mfc42.dll, mfc042.dll....." Does anyone know how to compile the program so that these dll files will be included? thanks

I try to write a program to talk to a external device via com port1. I use WriteFile() to send the ascii command: I verified to see that the ASCII command that I send out does go out to the port. I checked the correct configuration for the port(baudrate,stopbit...). But the devide still does not respond. However, the device is responding when I use windows hyperterminal to send the exact ascii command. Does anyone know why? Does hyperterminal terminate the stream it sends out with a special ascii value that my program doesn't ? Please help! Thanks, peter.

Is there any special trick to send a hex value through a serial port? Thanks, p. t.
