Hi Andreas,

thanks for letting me know. There is an Internet Draft
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-11.txt
and you can also read the third edition of Unix Network Programming.

Ah. Thanks for that hint.

The only difference is that you must use
ext_socket instead of socket, ext_bind instead of bind and so on.
Have a look in ext_scoket.h so see which functions you have to use.

Please note that you can not use fork() and that you have to
replace *all* functions which handle socket file descriptors by
the corresponding ext_* calls.

meaning if I use a TCP socket in the same app I have to do use ext_* as well?
and not being able to use fork, does that also mean I can not use multi threading (phtreads)?


And there are examples in socket_programs...

examples not explaining what they are trying to achieve are worthless ;)
