Misc / [v] bsdsocket.library emulation

No extra files needed.

What TCP/IP stack? There isn't any.

The thing is 100% built-in to WinUAE, you musn't install any TPC/IP stack.


PS. If you really want to, you can install a TCP/IP stack (amitcp or miami for example). Then you must disable 'bsdsocket.library emulation' and enable 'uaenet.device'. Then in the TCP/IP stack you must choose uaenet.device as the SANA2 driver. The uaenet.device is  probably still under development (and possibly buggy), so if in doubt, use bsdsocket.library emulation.

You must not add any files!

With bsdsocket.library emulation you do not need any TCP/IP stack.

Sounds like a design error to me :-S
Now if they just emulated a network card... then the standard (AFAIK) Banyan Vines network could also be used. Dunno how many programs use that.

I mean, the emulated OS adapting to the emulator, yuck!

-edit- oh wait, I was wrong, sorry for this of topic bladder...

The only thing you must do is to select the "bsdsocket.library emulation".

That's it.

But what exactly isn't working? As Piru said, it's magic--WinUAE emulates an in-memory bsdsocket.library. Any software that loads bsdoscket.library will find it. This is the way it works on a real Amiga as well (after installing a stack, of course, which adds an in-memory bsdsocket.library just like WinUAE does). There is no bsdsocket.library file. It doesn't exist.

So, enable bsdsocket.library emulation, start WinUAE, [install an OS, etc.], and launch AWeb or IBrowse or ping or telnet or whatever it is you want to use. You do have to install those programs, of course.

EDIT:

I'll also add that uaenet.device isn't necessarily buggy (in the latest WinUAE beta), but it is quirky. It rides on WinPCAP, and all of WinPCAP's peculiarities carry over into uaenet.device. That could change, depending on Toni's priorities, but it looks like Picasso96 optimization is up front at the moment. In the meantime, uaenet.device is Very Cool--and my favorite WinUAE feature, since it works (in theory) with all versions of Kickstart and Workbench.
