SYNOPSIS
  #include <sys/types.h>
  #include <netinet/in.h>

DESCRIPTION
  The putlong() function places long byte quantities into the byte stream or
  arbitrary byte boundaries.

  that is used by the resolver functions is kept in the _res data structure.
  The /include/resolv.h file contains the _res data structure definition.

FILES
  /etc/resolv.conf
      Lists the name server and domain name.
