+.SH NAME
+ares_set_socket_configure_callback \- Set a socket configuration callback
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <ares.h>
+.PP
+.B typedef int (*ares_sock_config_callback)(ares_socket_t \fIsocket_fd\fP,
+ int \fItype\fP,
+ void *\fIuserdata\fP)
+.PP
+.B void ares_set_socket_configure_callback(ares_channel \fIchannel\fP,

+.B cc file.c -lcares
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This function sets a \fIcallback\fP in the given ares channel handle. This
+callback function will be invoked after the socket has been created, but
+before it has been connected to the remote server, which is an ideal time
+to configure various socket options. The callback must return ARES_SUCCESS
+if things are fine, or return -1 to signal an error. A returned error will
+abort the ares operation.
