Re: [gtk-list] another GDK segfault...

[Luyseyal <luyseyal austin cc tx us>]

ok, figured out why it's segfaulting... null pointer b/c it's a
redhat system and they don't use /etc/hosts and stuff like that.

now that that's out of the way, any suggestions as to what calls
to use to find out similar host info?

thanks,
