I have been reading this group for the past few days and have come across
several references to Trumpet Winsock beta v1.0b6.  When I check the normal
source at utas I find only the alpha version, which has been there for months.

Can anybody tell me how to find the newer version?

Thanks,

Chris Grant

Its called the windows internet tour guide  by michael fraase from
ventana press (ISBN 1-56604-081-7) at $25 (or 23 pounds!!)
BTW its a PPP link not SLIP in the Chameleon stuff.

We have not been able to get the Novell WINSOCK to receive *any* SOCK_DGRAM
packets at all. (but other stacks work OK) We reported this to Novell
during the Beta phase but as yet have not had any resolution. Their
DLL is now shipping. I'd suggest trying another vendor's stack/WINSOCK
which will confirm if the problem is your code or maybe in the Novell
WINSOCK (or stack).

Does anyone know of a windows program to decompress UNIX "TAR" format files?

Thank you,
