gethostbyname: returns "not owner"


When I call gethostbyname(), it returns an error.  perror() displays
"not owner".

This only happens when  I'm running under SH.EXE.

Also, when I'm running under SH.EXE, ping (/windows/ping) and ftp
(/windows/ftp) will not work with host names.  If I use IP addresses
however, it will work.  In example, ping will return "Bad IP address"

Thanks for any help you can provide,
