anyone know about this ?

i'm going to be doing some (hopefully) cross platform socket stuff soon.

I did some socket programming on win32 recently and also first looked at the Sockets unit. I think that you are right that this unit is meant to be a cross platform unit. But I found that it didn't work on win32, may be be hasn't been finished yet. So I used the Winsock unit, which makes it possible to call the win32 API's as documented by microsoft.
