Having used a clock synchronization program on my 3B1 computer,
I was pleased to see settime.c come across comp.sources.misc.

However, on compiling it, I found I was lacking the functions
dial(3C) and undial(3C) in my libraries.  I have the man pages,
just no object modules.  To confirm the latter, I did "ar tv" and
"nm" on all the *.a and *.so* files in my lib directories and
grep'ed for dial.  Nothing found.

O.S. Software is Dell's Issue 2.2 of SVR4.  I also made a cursory
check of Issue 2.1.  Nothing at all.  Should be in libc.

Does anyone know if I have simply failed to find them in some
"hidden" location?

Dell says they don't know, but will send me patches to the
C libraries.  They may or may not (Dell's comment) have the
functions I seek.

Thanks, Jon
