GETPEERNAME(2)							GETPEERNAME(2)

NAME
       getpeername - get name of connected peer

SYNOPSIS
       getpeername(s, name, namelen)
       int s;
       struct sockaddr *name;
       int *namelen;

DESCRIPTION
       Getpeername  returns  the  name of the peer connected to socket s.  The
       namelen parameter should be initialized to indicate the amount of space
       pointed	to by name.  On return it contains the actual size of the name
       returned (in bytes).  The name is truncated if the buffer  provided  is
       too small.

DIAGNOSTICS
       A 0 is returned if the call succeeds, -1 if it fails.

ERRORS
       The call succeeds unless:

       [EBADF]	      The argument s is not a valid descriptor.

       [ENOTSOCK]     The argument s is a file, not a socket.

       [ENOTCONN]     The socket is not connected.

       [ENOBUFS]      Insufficient  resources  were available in the system to
		      perform the operation.

       [EFAULT]	      The name parameter points to memory not in a valid  part
		      of the process address space.
