I would not recommend anyone using libsocket. The implementation is
incomplete and is no longer being developed. Further, R Dawe's ndis
shim only works in windows 9x platforms and not on any NT-ish (i.e. XP)
based systems.

Watt-32 is the primary networking library available to DJGPP users now
and is well supported and actively in development by its maintainer and
commmunity.
