The only address family supported by winsock is AF_INET. You can't use unix domain sockets.

Problem opening socket

[Mark Newnham]

Hi, 


can anyone tell me if there is there an obvious (or not so obvious)
reason why the following code 

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/errno.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/un.h>

struct sockaddr_un sunx;
char LogName[] = "/dev/log";
int funix;
char *c;

main()
{
        sunx.sun_family = AF_UNIX;
        strncpy(sunx.sun_path, LogName, sizeof(sunx.sun_path));
        funix = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
        perror(c);

}

returns this error? 

 Addresses in the specified family cannot be used with this socket.

I am using sergey's cygwin.dll on Win95.

Regards

Mark
