33  * This is a simple program which demonstrates how to query the kernel
34  * routing mechanism using only a UDP socket.  Pass it a hostname on
35  * the command line (sorry, it doesn't parse dotted decimal) and it will
36  * print out an IP address which names the interface over which UDP
37  * packets intended for that destination would be sent.
38  * A more sophisticated program might use the list obtained from SIOCGIFCONF
39  * to match the address with an interface name, but applications programmers
40  * much more often need to know the address of the interface rather than
41  * the name.
