I'll look & see if I spot the problem. (I'll have to re-test on OS/2
anyway, to see that my fixes are stable).

well, we're getting closer (I think).
Does the program connect on the network? I don't have a way to test that
on OS/2 (maybe another time, but I didn't get a workable driver installed
for that).
Likewise, it'd be nice to see that it builds/runs/connects with Borland C.
I don't remember any feedback there recently (it's been all djgpp).
