Okay, I have some infomation on using the TCP/IP and UDP protocols (but, I'm
very sure I need to know more) however, I haven't the vaguest idea as to how
I might implement any sort of networking through DOS/DJGPP.  What I would
like to know is : how would I get a DJGPP program to properly work with my
NIC, let alone actually using a real protocol?

Where do I begin?
What all exactly should I know?
Is there a lib I should know about that could save me a lot of trouble with
this sort of mess.

Please, tell me everything you can on this that might be useful.  Thank you
for your time.
