Hi,

Sorry for the time taken to answer, I only have time on weekends.
Actually, plib-1.8.5 has the same problem, please confirm net/netSocket.h.
I don't know what you mean by "works fine"; I can get FlightGear to work
as long as I don't activate the UDP interfaces (which are used for connecting
to Atlas and terrasync). If those are activated, then it won't run.
Anyway, that would be a matter for the FlightGear mailing list.

I'm posting here because I have several different sugestions to make
the netSocket class portable.
How can I contact plib's developers?

Greetings,

Miguel
