Please have another look at the code and give it a second thought:

bool IpToU32(const string &str, u_int32_t *ip)
{
  int a,b,c,d;
  if(sscanf(str.c_str(),"%d.%d.%d.%d",&a, &b, &c, &d)!=4)
    return false;
  *ip++=a;
  *ip++=b;
  *ip++=c;
  *ip++=d;
  return true;
}


Obviously, this code is wrong and I wonder why inet_aton is not used
instead.


bye, Christof
