I'm writing a clone of inetd in which I must run a server that prints the IP and port of the client connecting to it.
As I overwrite STDIN
and STDOUT
with the socket descriptor, my initial solution to do this was to recover the sockaddr_in
structure, which contains the needed information. Doing this with getsockname()
, however, is returning an empty structure, with all bits set to 0.
Any idea of what is wrong with my approach? Are there any other approaches I can use to recover the IP/Port?
Thanks
