- Yes, it requires IBM TCP/IP. Of course, since it uses sockets, the
- code is pretty standard, so it may not be that hard to convert it to
- use another TCP/IP. It may even run out of the box that way (almost).
-
- Why don't you try it? Get the source and let me know what has/had to
- be done to it to get it to run under other TCP/IPs, and I will
- incorporate the necessary ifdefs.
