Subject: [ruby-talk:02968] Socket.getnameinfo


Does anyone know how to specify the port to Socket.getnameinfo?


        require 'socket'
        p Socket.getnameinfo(["AF_INET", 23, 'www.ibm.com'])

Gives:

      -:2:in `getnameinfo': Servname not supported for ai_socktype (SocketError)
	from -:2

Substituting nil

        require 'socket'
        p Socket.getnameinfo(["AF_INET", nil, 'www.ibm.com'])

Gives:

        ["198.133.16.99", "0"]
