Since you write the program is Unix, it's clear it's not MFC (and that's VERY
good ;-). To port it into djgpp and Win95 you only have to do two things:

 * create an export library with RSXNTDJ from WSOCK32.DLL
 * port the sockets code from unix to Windows (it's a little bit different)

Then just compile your program and off you go!

Good luck!
