Hi Jeff,

Thanks for your response.

Actually requirement is how a C/C++ program running in "master" node should
find out whether "slave" node is reachable (as we check this using "ping"
command) or not ? Because IP address may change at any time, that's why I am
trying to achieve this using "host name" of the "slave" node. How this can
be done?


Thanks & Regards,
