That idiot Eisen had what appears to be a typo in his code:


int
convert_data (const char *ascii, char *four_bytes)
{
  char *p;
  int bytenum;

  for (bytenum = 0, p = ascii; bytenum < 4; bytenum++)
    {
      four_bytes[bytenum] = atoi (p);
      if ((p = strchr (p, '.')) == NULL)   /* strchr is called index in BSD */
        return -1;
      p++;  /* Omitted in the original posting */
    }

  return 0;
}
