Does anyone know of a TCP/IP product for the IBM PC with the following
two features:
- Can run in a 386 DOS system in the DOS Protected Mode
Interface (DPMI).
- Has a Reverse ARP Demon or has hooks for me to write a
Reverse ARP demon.
Thanks,
--kory

We reverse-engineered and duplicated the Excelan socket library for use with our Phar-Lap protected mode app (not the DPMI one tho--this was a couple of years ago). Most of the TCP/IP code runs on the board, and the DRIVER.EXE TSR seems to work fine, if started up before the p-mode app is loaded, of course. I'm not at liberty to give the code away, I'm afraid, but maybe it's helpful to know that someone has done this. RARP is supported, but not from within our app. BTW, I recently approached FTP Software about providing this, and they said there was no demand. Maybe you should organize a campaign to convince them otherwise? Alan -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Alan Medsker Viewlogic Systems, Inc.

A DPMI compliant, Sockets API DLL for MS-Windows 3.0 will be available from Wollongong in mid-December. Also, Frontier Technologies announced TCP/IP applications for MS-Windows at Networld, but I don't know when or if they will release a DPMI API. > - Has a Reverse ARP Demon or has hooks for me to write a RARP demon. Is BOOTP acceptable? enjoy, leo j mclaughlin iii The Wollongong Group ljm@twg.com
