Re: login failure on WindowsNT

[Pradeep Picardo]

The necessary code is already there in the function start_tcp_server(), it
just needs to be 'cut and pasted' into connect_to_pserver().
I'm attaching the output of the diff command to this mail, I believe
there's something called 'patch' but I'm a windows guy and am not familiar
with the unix conventions regarding submitting code patches. (Any guidance is
welcome :-) ).
In case you need a name to attribute this code change to - its Ravindra
Naik.

 - Pradeep.


note: client.c is the modified file, client.c.orig is the file as
