Hi, Wayne!

If you want to communicate RTLinux (and not Linux) with other machines then you
should take a look at the rtlinux/network directory. You can use rtsocks or
lwIP, which is a full TCP/IP stack for RTLinux.

I think that the sockets API is standard for Linux, Windows and others. Both,
rtsocks and RTL-lwIP provide the sockets API (well, I think rtsocks does, sure
lwip does), but rtsocks use the Linux TCP/IP stack to send packets and RTL-lwIP
has its own implementation, even its own Ethernet drivers.

Both rtsocks and rtl-lwip provide documentation files in their directories.
I think that RTSocks doesn't have web page, RTL-lwIP does:

http://rtl-lwip.sourceforge.net

Best regards.

Sergio.
