Are you using the socketshr from ftp://ftp.qsl.net/pub/wb8tyw/ ?

The other ones have an unitialized R2 that causes some interesting and hard
to find failures.

Also at the same area is a UCXSIM shared image that allows some program
binaries that were linked against UCX to run with CMU-IP as long as you do
not request a feature that CMU-IP does not provide.  UCXSIM is used instead
of UCX$IPC_SHR.EXE.  It actually just turns all the calls except select()
over to NETLIB.  A readme file explains what works and what does not.

A set of SAMBA (1.9.16p2) binaries that will run on your box is also there.
The NMBD stuff works quite well.  It is all linked in DEBUG, but that is
easy to fix.
