OK - there was a subdirectory:
os2\mdos\winsos2\intuit\shared\qwinsock

I deleted all the files from the \qwinsock subdirectory.
Autoexec.bat path points to \tcipip\dos\bin and there is a winsock.dll
file in there. I also have a SET WIN3DIR=\os2\mdos\winos2 (should I delete
that?)

ETC points to \tcpip\dos\etc (should I try changing it?)

The error is:
WINSOCK
WSAAsyncSelect()Unable to locate CB for this socket.

Ping under DOS, and WPing under winos2 can find my router and other
computers. If I try to ping a www address, it times out. But that happens
on my other OS/2 machine under OS/2, too.

I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sandy
