[rds-devel] Trying out RDS

[Vladimir Sokolovsky]

Hello Carl,
Try to use AF_INET_OFFLOAD instead of AF_INET as a parameter to socket call.

#define AF_INET_OFFLOAD 30
#define NF_INET_OFFLOAD 30

Note:
The Oracle RDS from http://oss.oracle.com/projects/rds/src/trunk has the 
different API.
See an example http://oss.oracle.com/projects/rds-tools/src/trunk
and the README file: 
http://oss.oracle.com/projects/rds/dist/documentation/rds.7.txt

Regards,
Vladimir
