Hi netters, I have OS/2 1.33 (extended) with IBMs TCP-IP drivers. They
load (using config.sys) into both OS/2 and DOS. I only need to run
telnet sessions on the OS/2 side, I need the 180k used by these drivers
on the DOS side when the DOS window is activated.

Is there a mechanism (hack or not) to unload these drivers from DOS
and still allow OS/2 TCP-IP to survive?

Are there public domain TCP-IPs that run under OS/2 that take less than
80kb on the DOS side or do not load there at all?

Help is urgently needed on this one...thanks in advance.

please email to
	alen@crash.cts.com
and I'll summarise for the net.
