GWINSOCK.DLL

GWINSOCK.DLL is WinVN's interface to Winsock.. This interface was developed to allow WinVN to also work with DLL's that predate the Winsock specification (such as the WSOCKETS.DLL used in Microsoft LAN manager 2.1a and DEC Pathworks 4.1) and also to allow experimentation with other non-sockets based networking transports. There is an alternate version of the DLL, for use in situations in which GWINSOCK.DLL performs poorly, called GENASYNC.DLL. For more information, see Installing WinVN.
