I didn't understand you there. Can you describe the problem in a bit more 
detail?

Hmmmm. Which version of UAE was that with?

And so is Linux. ;-)

Here's a fairly recent version you can test:
http://rcdrummond.net/uae/test/uae-bsdsock-test-linux-i386.bz2

It has loads of bug fixes (and a new bsdsocket.library emulation).

I do need to get a new release out. I've been meaning to for ages, but with 
being ill and work and everything else, there just never seems to be the 
time.

Cheers,
Rich
