Has anyone done programming with NCS?  We have the NCS Reference
manual and the examples loaded onto our system but the documentation
is incomplete.  For instance, many of the examples use socket_$ calls
but there is very little discussion of them in the reference manual.
I think these calls are in defined /usr/include/idl/c/socket.h loaded
with the NCS software and not in the standard <sys/socket.h>.
Where is there more extensive documentation?  There's only so much
one can figure out from examples and include files.  Thanks.
(BTW, we're running this under SR9.7 / BSD4.2.)

Yan.
