The members of this structure are:
Getnetent reads the next line of the file, opening the file if necessary.
Setnetent opens and rewinds the file. If the stayopen flag is non-zero, the net data base will not be closed after each call to getnetbyname or getnetbyaddr.
Endnetent closes the file.
Getnetbyname and getnetbyaddr sequentially search from the beginning of the file until a matching net name or net address and type is found, or until EOF is encountered. Network numbers are supplied in host order.
