Subject:   pointer for thread safe resolver stuff?
Message-ID:  <20001113003402.F11449@fw.wintelcom.net>

Hey, I'm not having much fun trying to find threadsafe code to do
gethostbyname_r, someone pointed me at Bind9 which has what looks
like some threadsafe stuff, however I can't seem to find any docco
for it.  (such as how to init the hostent that I pass to it and
which functions are trully threadsafe)

I'm going to keep reading the library source (and cursing the ISC)
but I was wondering if anyone knew of any docs for the bind9 stuff
or any other thread safe (non-GPL'd) resolver library.

thanks,
