[systemd-devel] How to get a useful peer address when doing accept(3, ...) on a systemd supplied listening socket

That was exactly my mistake! Thanks.

At some point in my hopeless odyssey down a wrong track I tried giving the whole struct to inet_ntop() and forgot to change it back when I got everything else to work.

Thanks for your help and sorry for the inconvenience.
