DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The putlong() function places long  byte  quantities  into
       the byte stream or arbitrary byte boundaries.

       The putlong() 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 data structure
       definition.

FILES    [Toc]    [Back]

       Lists the name server and domain name.
