Someone asked about how to write portable network programming on VMS
on this newsgroup, but I lost the article.
So, this is the answer to foo@bar.
*/

VMS POSIX and XPG3 doesn't contain any networking API.
( XTI is in XPG4 )
But, DEC TCP/IP Service for OpenVMS(UCX) contains the BSD socket
library in it.
Or, you can use DECrpc v1.0(in UCX) to talk to the system with
NCS.

Other options:
	ACAS(Application Control Architechure Service)
	DECmessageQ
