I'd like to try out Trumpet Winsock over Ethernet. I have a Dell Latitude
with an SMC91C2 ethernet card. Can anyone point me to a suitable packet
driver for this combination, or suggest another solution?

I was successful using the ODI drivers supplied on the Advanced Port
Replicator (APR) disk and using the ODIPKT shim. I also tried the NDIS
drivers since I was running WfWG; however, it would lock up every
time. The APR disk is availble at Dell's Web site:

http://www.dell.com/cgi-bin/readme/drivers/apr-net.exe

If you don't need NDIS (for NetBEUI) or ODI (for IPX) then the packet
driver is probably the best way to go. I do not know if there is a
packet driver on that disk.

Good Luck
