Alright, I have "fixed" this in the sense that I needed to connect with
nectonn_connect to the srerver, rather than using netcat (and linux sockets
for that matter). I realise my client/server application has to use the
lwip API.

I am now stuck with another problem, as I'm trying to compile the client on
linux using the UNIX port from unix/ports/proj/lib, linking the liblwip.so
with my application, it creates a new interface (/dev/tap0) with the
default IP 192.168.1.1. I am currently stuck with how to dynamically set
the IP to that virtual interface it automatically creates.

Well, it's not much of a problem, I'm sure following the call stack will
get me the solution, I just wanted to call the initial issue "resolved" in
the sense that I now somewhat understand what I must do :)
