Your app would be something like this:
#include <sys/socket.h>
main() { return 0; }
If it can find socket.h, it will compile, else it won't.

OK , I'll try it out. Thanks for the tip.
BTW, Any idea about what was the reason sockets.h was not found at first go even when I saw that it existed ?
I really broke my head over this cause I could not figure out why 'configure' was unable to find the file when it existed in the appropriate location.
I even reinstalled the slackpackage containing the kernel include files after the third unsuccessful attempt at an install.
The problem may be that I run a 2.4 kernel and the include files are from 2.2.19 ?
Don't know why Slack 8 doesn't come with 2.4 includes when they give you an option for a 2.4.5 install.
Thanks again. Regards, Michael.
