JP>  The way to run Windows TCP/IP applications on OS/2 is to install TCP/IP

them

What sort of overhead does this create ie additional RAM required
is it possible to install the IAK on an 8mb system without everything slowing
down to a crawl or alternatively is there an OS/2 equivalent of trumpet 
Winsock
that can be loaded and unloaded everytime the program is run and _not_ remain 
in
memory taking up mvaluable RAM.
JP>  This is why you should *not* use any another WINSOCK.DLL, despite the
JP>  hordes of underinformed idiots telling you to do so.
Thats good to know.
Cheers
