What's the use of implementing VxDs for Wine anyway BTW?
Same as anything else in Wine, I think: some windows programs rely on them. The DHCP VxD is used, for example, by winipcfg.exe. You mentioned in your old, old post you know how to call VNBT; how much do you know? I implemented enough of io control code 116 to make winipcfg.exe happy, but I didn't tackle io control code 119. Know anything about it? --Juan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail SpamGuard - Read only the mail you want. http://antispam.yahoo.com/tools

We had those implemented already but in a rather unclean way. This is just cleaning the implementation up I suppose. Ciao, Marcus

Sorry, it *is* long ago, you know. :-) (I'll run a grep over my old backups though, but don't hold your breath.)
