Try "C Programmer's Guide to NetBIOS" by Schwaderer, published by
Howard W. Sams & Co., ISBM 0-672-22638-3.  It is not perfect, but you should
be able to get your local bookstore to get it for you in a week or two
if they do not have it in stock.  Price is $26.95 (or was when I bought
mine). Be warned that the sample code may have a bug or two.  For example,
I seem to recall that one sample program calls "int86x without assigning
values to "segregs".

I also see "to order directly from the publisher, call 800-428-SAMS. In
Indiana, Alaska, and Hawaii call 317-298-5699," printed inside.

Look closely at the return address.  It is nanovx and NOT nanovAx.
