Dear mailing list:

The following code works well on a Linux platform,

   int sockfd;
  char buf[1024];
  struct sockaddr fromaddr;
  int fromlen;

 if ( (retv = recvfrom( sockfd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0, &fromaddr,&fromlen )) <
0 )
    {
      perror( "udpclient: recvfrom" );
    }

However, in cygwin the following error message is produced:

      udpclient: recvfrom: Bad address

Can anyone tell me how to get pas this problem?

Pleas reply, to mailto:mcnelson AT mindspring DOT com
