Looking through the various config files, I see the following that set HAVE_SYSIPC but that don't set HAVE_SOCKETS: m/7300.h m/ibmrs6000.h m/ns16000.h s/usg5-3.h s/xenix.h m/7300.h: last changed in 95. m/ibmrs600.h: has USUAL-OPSYS="aix3-1" and s/aix-3-1.h defines HAVE_SOCKETS. m/ns16000.h: last changed in 94. s/usg5-3.h: looks like the last real change was in 93. s/xenix.h: seems to only have had cosmetic changes since rev 1.1 in 91. When I say "last changed in 95" I don't count changes that seem to have been global (moving stuff from [sm]/*.h to autoconf and things like that). I think it's safe to ignore those ancient systems, any disagreement ? Stefan
