Whould anybody know whether it's possible to use the WinSock out of
the CE streams driver, i.e in the device.exe context? I'm calling
the WSAStartup() et al upon an interactive application request, so
the WinSock has long been initialized by then. The driver does link
against the ws2.lib statically though. Any soul doing something similar?

What I'm seeing is the success for the socket(), bind(), setsockopt()s
and the sendto() calls, but no packets leave the iPAQ. There should be
no ARP/routing issues to speak of. It is the UDP (SOCK_DGRAM) socket on
the Windows Mobile 2003 if that matters.

Many thanks,
Ilya Faenson
