A history and pointer to info on networking with DOS can be found at my
DOS Networking HOWTO http://www.dendarii.co.uk/FAQs/dos-net.html>
which is part of the FreeDOS documentation project.

Robert already have a link for you (wow! M$'s document).

Simply speaking, two major working set for DOS:

1) Waterloo TCP utilities, a bunch of small programs such as ping, ftp
and Arachne ... this one need a PACKET DRIVER

2) Microsoft's LAN Manager, this is for connecting Windows network or
SAMBA with TCP/IP, you need a NDIS2 DRIVER


Rgds,
Johnson.
