As long as your TCP/IP stuff is Microsoft WinSock 1.1 compliant then there is no problem. By the way I'm using FTP Software's PC/TCP 2.3 (!). Ok, you'll experience some little problems with Informix-NET PC 4.10 for DOS with Windows for Workgroups, but no big deal, after some sleepless nights I got everything working with PC/TCP. You might experience some troubles with other TCP/IP's from Wollongong or Sun with 4.10 NET products, but I would suggest to use 5.01 NET for Windows, it simply great. (I think you are using I-NET PC 4.10... isn't ?) Regards, R. TI-IE Belgium NV, Tel: +32/2/245.04.44 Fax: +32/2/242.15.92 E-mail: hove@hove.tiie.ti.com
