99% of the windows users consider networking as browsing internet. Give suport for TCP/IP , for a basic browser (wish it were graphical, and most common ethernet cards (kind of realtek or others widely used) and you can say. ¡We have networking!. An extra would be suport for some widely used modems. Noone expect apache or emule working in an alpha OS, even FTP is prescindible in 0.3. Regards, Lucio Diaz.

Just to get things straight, ROS .3 is supposed to have basic working TCP (UDP?) /IP. So, that means what parts of the protocol will be working and which will not? Or is there more to it then that?
If it's JUST that then "Basic TCP/IP" sounds descriptive.

Yes it seems the consensus is that 'Networking' includes netbios for most people, because they rely on shared printers, disks. I actually didn't think the term would cause any conflict (sorry), but I was merely setting the bar for 'Basic TCP/IP' (one browser, mail, irc cvs, etc). I don't really care what it's called as long as we agree what it should do at this stage.
FTP is much much easier to handle then HTTP+Browser.
I think we will have Telnet, FTP and HTTP by 0.3...but only for a limited number of NICs.
Best regards, Alex Ionescu
