The most important change is that all storing port numbers in variables is done in host byte order. The two functions get_port() and set_port() in netpipes-4.2/common.c are responsible to transform to, or from, network byte order. Sensible detection of UNIX socket paths. July 28th, 2003 I had to rename getpeername to getsockname (and remove the symlink getsockname) as this package did conflict with tcputils.
