The files have the same names as those on the ISC site, I guess the different file sizes are down to using different versions of zip - I'm not particularly inclined to download the files for comparison. >The sources are available, and if it includes the reslover library, >it's possible that taking just the resolver library and porting it >other win32 systems may not be too bad. It's got code for the resolver library, but it doesn't seem (on a first read through) to know how to ask Windows for its DNS server addresses, netmasks, ... One of my hopes was to avoid asking users to give my application such info when Windows has it already. >But I sugegst you re-read the first sentance of my reply before >getting too excited ;-) ta for the input >Mike ``What do you mean, it's not UNIX?''
