Anyone got code for going through multiple IP address returns from a
name server lookup?  Is it really as simple as wandering through the
hostent struct returned by gethostbyname()?

struct  hostent {		/* Digital UNIX /usr/include/netdb.h */
        char    *h_name;        /* official name of host */
        char    **h_aliases;    /* alias list */
        int     h_addrtype;     /* host address type */
        int     h_length;       /* length of address */
        char    **h_addr_list;  /* list of addresses from name server */
#define h_addr  h_addr_list[0]  /* address, for backward compatiblity */
};
