Hi, i am coding a small c program in order to learn
network programming:
main(int argc, char *argv[]){
struct hostent *host;
....
if((host=gethostbyname(argv[1])=NULL)){
        perror("gethostbyname");
        exit(-1);}
/* now, i want to print out all the hostent struct
information */
printf("struct hostent{\n");
printf("char *h_name: %s", host->h_name);
printf("char **h_aliases:%s\n", host->h_length);
printf("int h_addrtype: %d\n", host->h_addrtype);
printf("int h_length:   %d\n", host->h_length);
printf("char **h_addr_list:  %d\n",
host->h_addr_list);
}
}
This program core dumped, it may crash because i am
trying to print an char array (h_addr_list, right?), I
want to know how can i print all the information store
in a struct hostent?, especiality the ip address.

thanks
