See the post I just made --- fe-secure.c calls pqGethostbyname(), and that should be converted to getaddrinfo --- once that is done, we can omit the test on platforms with getaddrinfo() as you indicated. Can someone handle this. I am heading to Mexico tomorrow. I an adjust the test script when I return but I would like to see fe-secure.c adjusted. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
