hi everyone!,

can you please teach me how the hell the implementations sctplib +socketapi work and what are the differences to lksctp implementation?
The sctplib is a different implementation, running in userland and does not
provide a lot of features. When using Linux, I would recommend using the
Linux kernel implemenation.

as a beginner i noticed that any of the sources provided under socket_programs has an include directive like <sctp.h>. in light of this, how does the compller knows the sctp terms?

another question: while using lksctp i have to specify -lsctp on gcc. what about sctplib+socketapi?
If you want to link a program against sctplib and socketapilib, have a look at the
corresponding Makefiles...

i'm a bit lost as you can see!!
First of all: Make a choice. Use the kernel (which is what I would
recommend) or use the userland implementation.

thanks in advance
