Hello All, 

Follwoing is an e-mail I sent DJ. He advised me to forward it to the 
group. Please respond also to my individual e-mail (I am not listening
to the group right now).

Hello DJ,

- Background

I would like to port a socket based application to DOS. Specifically
the SNMP manager of CMU.

I have ported it to SCO unix (it required some small modification but basically
it was Unix). At home I'd like to run on my DOS machine.

- Specific questions

1. Do you know anybody who compiled a Unix (Berkeley or similar) socket
   library or part of it for DOS using dgjpp ?
   Is it publicly available ?

2. If the answer to (1) is positive, what driver is used to communicate with
   the Ethernet adaptor? Is it NDIS, packect-driver or something else ?

3. What about other applications like ftp, telnet (that requires tcp).
   Has anybody you know of did any work in this area ?


If you can provide me some hooks, connection, or information on the 
topic above it would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance,

- Yigal
