Solaris 8. > Have you read: Yes. However, unless I'm confused, that is a bit different in that it is an example of using APR to work with the socket established by Apache to communicate with the client. I need to establish my own UDP conversation with a "third-party" service from where I'll retrieve data which I'll use to compose my response to the client. If I can use APR to do that, great, but I couldn't find docs/samples/tests that create/open/close APR sockets.
