The hostname is of length \fIhostlen\fR and is returned via \fI*host\&.\fR The maximum length of the hostname is 1025 bytes: \fBNI_MAXHOST\fR\&. .PP The name of the service associated with the port number in \fIsa\fR is returned in \fI*serv\&.\fR It is \fIservlen\fR bytes long\&. The maximum length of the service name is \fBNI_MAXSERV\fR \- 32 bytes\&. .PP The \fIflags\fR argument sets the following bits: .PP \fBNI_NOFQDN\fR .RS 4 A fully qualified domain name is not required for local hosts\&.

This is required for the few ports (512\-514) that have different services for UDP and TCP\&. .RE .SH "RETURN VALUES" .PP \fBlwres_getnameinfo()\fR returns 0 on success or a non\-zero error code if an error occurs\&. .SH "SEE ALSO" .PP \fBRFC2133\fR(), \fBgetservbyport\fR(3), \fBlwres\fR(3), \fBlwres_getnameinfo\fR(3), \fBlwres_getnamebyaddr\fR(3)\&. \fBlwres_net_ntop\fR(3)\&. .SH "BUGS" .PP RFC2133 fails to define what the nonzero return values of \fBgetnameinfo\fR(3) are\&. .SH "AUTHOR" .PP \fBInternet Systems Consortium, Inc\&.\fR .SH "COPYRIGHT" .br Copyright \(co 2000, 2001, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2014-2016, 2018-2020 Internet Systems Consortium, Inc.
