I am for one haveing a hard time even getiing any documentation on all of
these....

When i create a database with perl it makes a .db.....

but i am trying to compile a c prog that will add keys to a data base...

can you tell me what i am doing wrong....

I use this to create the database......

#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <ndbm.h>

main() {

	DBM *db;

	db = dbm_open("/usr/local/radius/users",O_CREAT,0000664);
	
	dbm_close(db);
}



and then i am trying to add data to it by..........

#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <ndbm.h>


main() {

	DBM *db
	datum kename,whatto;

	db = dbm_open("/usr/local/radius/users",O_WRONLY,0000664);

	kename.dptr = "animal";
	kename.dsize = strlen(kename.dptr)+1;

	whatto.dptr = "Data to be stored in database";
	kename.dsize = strlen(whatto.dptr)+1;

	if (dbm_store(db,kename,whatto,DBM_INSERT) < 0) {
		printf("Insert messed up");
	}
	
	dbm_close(db);
}


both progs compile correctly and the create one works fine gives me a file
of

-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel       0 Aug 14 14:24 users.db

but when i run the second one to insert a key and some data.....

i get

Segmentation fault (core dumped)



any suggestions.....

i am probably even in the wrong mailing list...
