- Does the TCP/IP package need to see an ethernet card in the box?
-
- I have a 486/33 with 20 MB and I want to set up a client server application
- that will eventually run on a network, However I don't have a network..
-
- I don't see any reason why I can't have the server & client running in the
- same box.... Does TCP/IP uses sockets and all that neat stuff like unix?
-
- IBM tech support was no help with this...
-
- How much is TCP/IP with an educational discount?
- How much Harddrive space is needed?
