I have been trying for ages now to get a DJGPP version of the DOS socket
lib.... I tried downloading the watt32 version and after finding that
everywhere listing it had a corrupted .tar.gz file I managed to find an
earlier zip file which when I unzipped all the bits into my DJGPP folders
and tried to include it gave me so many errors for things not defined or
missing functions etc... I tried altering stuff to fix it but just ended up
having to strip out too much stuff....

So thats what I've tried so far.... has anyone got the lib working?? Is
there a different version (not winsock)?

thanks in advance,
