In response to the question on socket calls from Windows, it is my 
impression that most of the current implementations are built for
DOS and have problems interfacing to Windows.  Your solution is either
to wait for the vendors to come out with a socket interface to Windows
or to switch to a TCP/IP stack that is implemented as a Windows DLL.
Obviously I prefer the second approach since NetManage has a full
TCP/IP stack implemented as a Windows DLL with socket interface.
I am not going to go into a commercial here so you can contact me
at netmanage@cup.portal.com or call (408)257-6404.
