You are not the only one.  I have the save problem with an Internal
Boca 14.4 modem.  I have not spent a lot of time on it yet, but, if
I find something I will let you know.  Please do the same.

Why don't you put it on rtfm.mit.edu with all the rest of the FAQs?

Should be no problem. FTP software has a winsock.dll hooking onto its kernel.
This allows to run all winsock compatible programs (e.g. Eudora). If the
winsock is not included in your PC/TCP package, you can download the latest
version via FTP from vax.ftp.com

There's a separate windows version of SQL*Net which works with winsock, it
supports several commercial implementations aswell as 'generic' winsock and
I'm using it quite happily with the trumpet winsock for sqlplus under windows
and foxpro 4 windows using ODBC
The DOS versions of SQL*Net and SQL*Plus also work fine but you need to use a
SQL*Net supported TCP/IP implementation (FTP forinstance). Use windows! its
winsock enables you to do other comm stuff besides Oracle (SQL*Net 4 DOS grabs
your packet driver and never lets go)

I guess I'm right cause I've seen working applications on my own PC :-)
Let me know if you have further questions

Get WINSOCK.DLL from ftp.ftp.com.

FTP Software were one of the companies that came up with the original
WinSock API, and they've supported the standard for quite some time
now.

Hello David.

Like you I'm a PC networked with packet driver and I also have XWindemo, but
I can't run it because I don't know nothing about winsock. Could you help me
please? My questions are:

Where can I get Winsock?

How can I implement Winsock over packet driver?

Thanks in advance for your help and sorry if you feel that
this post is in someway busybody.

I know that it is possible to set the configuration of DISTINCT TCP/IP to
accept incoming SLIP connections. This requires that:
Your modem is set to "pick up" the line.
Any DISTINCT application is active (i.g. FTP server).

As far as I am concern they do not have a stand alone SLIP server, but the
above described "scenario" gives you a similar functionality.

I do not know if this is what you are looking for. If so, here is how to get
in touch with them:
