[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] need socket library for DOS that supports packet drivers.

rick@gtisqr.uucp (Rick Groeneveld) (08/29/90)

Hello,
Does anybody know where I might find a socket library for PC-DOS that
emulates the UNIX (3I) functions and supports packet drivers? Please
respond via email as my newsfeed is not reliable. Thanks in advance.

I think this is of general interest.  I know, I am interested in the
answers.  I would like to see something like the independently
developed NFS client and server distributed with BSD4.3-reno made
to run under MSDOS.  Do KA9Q or NCSA Telnet have a set of procedures
that look similar to the socket library?  Ron.
