Body
<p>I send a datagram (6740 bytes) with sendto() to another host on the same LAN. Often there is no problem, and the other host got the datagram. But sometimes the datagram disapears, it never reach the local network interface, I have seen this with wireshark. But the sendto() function does not indicate any problem (i.e. returns -1). It returns 6740. I have also looked with strace, and everything seems to be ok.How can it be that sendto() says that everything is ok but nothing is sent on the interface? I am using ubuntu 10.04 and the ordinary c function <code>sendto()</code> (but via the ACE library). How can I investigate this further? <em>The main question is probably:</em> can a message just disappear between the call to sendto() and the sending network card without notifying the caller? </p>

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
