When id Software wrote Quake (using DJGPP), they included support for
only two TCP/IP stacks: the Beame and Whiteside TCP/IP stack and the
Windows 95 TCP/IP stack. (BWTCP is a Dos-based stack.)
However, access to the Win95 TCP/IP stack is attained through another
(Windows) program (MPath). This is commercial, I think; look at
http://www.mplayer.com/ for more information on this. This seems to
imply that id Software couldn't find a free version.
If you're happy to use a Dos TCP/IP stack, look at WatTCP. I'm not
sure where I got it; try a Web search.
