I'm using the same versions of Winsock and QVTNET as you, and, for me at
least, the solution was leaving the name=   line blank while setting ip=BOOT.
Hope you're up and running soon.

I just uploaded it to ftp.cica.indiana.edu in the
pub/pc/win3/uploads directory.  It's called winsock5.zip.

Thanx for the tip, but if i do what you proposed  and startup QVTNET it still
moans 'local host name not specified'. On the other hand if i leave ip= blank
and set name=BOOT then QVTNET comes up without complaining. When i then try to
open a terminal session  QVTNET and TCPMAN die with a GPF...grr... :-(

Maybe the key is the way you get TCPMAN to realize the IP adress assigned to
you. I 've configured TCPMAN to get it via BOOTP.
