Function Documentation

atalk_aton()

int atalk_aton	(	char *	cp,
		struct at_addr *	addr )

Check whether "cp" is a valid ascii representation of an AppleTalk address and convert to a binary address.

Examples of accepted forms are (in decimal, net of 4321, node of 65):

4321.65
0x10E1.41
16.225.65
0x10.E1.41

If hex is used, and the first digit is one of A-F, the leading 0x is redundant. Returns 1 if the address is valid, 0 if not.

Unlike Internet addresses, AppleTalk addresses can have leading 0's. This means that we can't support octal addressing.
