As Trumpet is a WINSOCK implementation then any of the generic WINSOCK solutions
will do. Such as PCNFS. The things to check after the installation are that
ORACLE.INI points to the correct services and hosts file and that TCP_VENDOR is
set to winsock and this will then sort you out. Assuming that the version of
SQLNET supports WINSOCK :-)

: Think long and hard about Freenets. Most practice censorship. Certain topics
: are forbidden. Language is carefully monitored. Writer's SIGs, for example,
: have to censor the writings online -- writings you will find in any supermarket
: novel.
: Freenets also have limited access to the Internet. You are accessing the
: Internet through a shell. You have only as much access as they are willing to
: grant. You cannot, for example, use Mosaic to access WWW from most Freenets.
: Nor can you use IRC from most of them. You want an account that gives PPP or
: SLIP access, preferably PPP. Then you can use your own TCP/IP client software
: to access the Internet.
:
: Avoid Netcom, too. They have even begun to revoke network access for users who
: stimulate heated discussions in Usenet groups. They have, for example, pulled
: the account of someone recently for submitting dead cat postings to
: rec.pets.cats. A handful of readers complained to the Netcom sysadmin and
: Netcom reacted. Badly.
: I cannot speak to PSI or Delphi. I have no experience. However, AOL practices
: censorship with a vengeance.
: Look for an Internet access provider that believes in the right to free
: expression.
I agree with most of the above except I have no personal experience
with Netcom so can't comment. CRL is fine for a shell account but
when I also wanted SLIP I went to a different provider. THe first
offfered SLIP for $20 minimum/month for 20 hours $1/hr over that.
SOunded good till I got there and found they were based on i86 boxes
and very slow. So I now use a host who has $30/month minimum 30
hours $1/hr over that with Sun boxes and 28.8 (Hayes) modems (which
alas I don't have yet).

Correction: For those international users, BWCCENG.DLL is the one the program
looks for... It is identical to BWCC.DLL which is supplied in the zip file...
To solve the problem, rename BWCC.DLL to BWCCENG.DLL.
