The TCP/IP stack that shipped with NT 3.1 was based on System V STREAMS, with code licensed from Spider. The TCP/IP stack that shipped with Windows 95 and Windows/NT 3.5 is an updated version of Wolverine. It has been part of Windows 9x and /NT up to the present. The OS/2 TCP/IP stack was written by IBM based on the BSD stack. It might actually be the BSD stack ported to OS/2 but I'm not sure about that. Have any more misconceptions that you need clarified? I got plenty of time to poke holes in your proclamations. -- Rich P. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
