I am looking for a socket library that will work with Think C so I can port some 4.3BSD based clients to the Mac. Here's what I've found so far: - TCPort from Novell/Kinetics. Costs $2500, no license restrictions, works with MPW or Think. Cleaned up version of UMichigan code. - Toronto - madhaus.utcs.utoronto.ca contains an implementation for MPW. - UMichigan - Their code became TCPort. The anonymous ftp distribution directory for their code is locked, probably due to an agreement with Kinetics, but I'm not sure. Any other pointers would be welcome. This *is* for commercial purposes, so whatever I use can't be too restrictive when it comes to distribution. Worst comes to worst, I'll go with MacTCP, but there are restrictions with it, I have to rewrite more code, and the like. I'd probably break down and buy and use MPW first. -David
