I think there is a bug in getnetent(3) and family's representation
of the value of the n_net field.
Specifically, if I:
struct netent *nep;
struct in_addr in;
while( ( nep = getnetent()) != NULL) {
printf( "n_name: %s\n", nep->n_name);
in.s_addr = htonl(nep->n_net);
printf( "n_net: %s\n", inet_ntoa(in));
}
And /etc/networks contains:
your-net 127 # your comment
your-netmask 255.255.255 # subnet mask for your-net
subnet1 127.0.1 alias1 # comment 1
subnet2 127.0.2 alias2 # comment 2
The ouput I get is:
n_name: your-net
n_net: 0.0.0.127
n_name: your-netmask
n_net: 0.255.255.255
n_name: subnet1
n_net: 0.127.0.1
n_name: subnet2
n_net: 0.127.0.2
Pretty obviously, missing tuples aren't being expanded, per the RFC
and per the man page?!?
