- WFW 3.11

-
- Is there a FAQ about this?
- Thanks in advance, Fernando

- See that you have PC/TCP's winsock.dll in a directory in the path or the
- windows or windows\system directories. Be sure you don't have a
- different winsock.dll in those directories or the working directory
- of the app.

- Subject: WINVN bug?

- I've started using WINVN over Trumpet for it's ability to compute threads.
- Unfortunately, it tends to give bad article numbers when used with some of
- the larger newsgroups. Has anyone else seen this?

- You'll see fewer missed datagrams with the PCTCP kernel if you
- request additional buffers when you load the kernel, and request a
- larger receive buffer for your UDP socket by calling
- setsockopt(SO_RCVBUF).
