- The (unofficial) answer that I got to this question is that the initial
- release of WfWG does not have an install procedure for tcp/ip, but it
- will work with the LanMan DOS client tcp/ip stack. You've just gotta
- figure out how to install it yourself.
-
- An installation process for tcp/ip is scheduled to appear In The Near
- Future (that's a bit after Real Soon Now).
