Windows(TM) Network Programming

Summary: Mind expanding and extremely helpful
Review: I was busy trying to develop videophone when everything was just absent: SDKs, theories, papers, standards. The book, written by former Novell programmer who written Windows Netware drivers, was very helpful for me. I got his idea of sending messages across computer boundaries and I later implemented it in my code. That's easy: just pack it into structure and unpack it n other side!. My videophones were kept sending each other such a messages to know who is online, and that feature made a big difference..

Summary: sources
Review: Ralph Davis seems to be a very experienced author concerning networks and this book gives a very helpful introduction into network programming. He also knows well what the beginner has to know. But it would be more helpful for me if anyone could give me an adress to download the source-code printed in the book. About 40% of the books weight must be printed source code. To make further experience I would need the sources as file on my harddisk
