On my WIN2000 PROF box I get a error an starting newLISP:

Der Prozedureinsprungpunkt "freeaddrinfo" wurde in der "DLL WS2_32.dll" nicht gefunden.

On MSDN the doc of freeaddrinfo tells that WIN2K is supported.

Version 10.2.8 does not do this.

Some more info:

Is it a bug or a new minimum system requirement?

WSAStartup() now is changed to version 2.2 and based on this information:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 85%29.aspx

Windows Sockets version 2.2 is supported on Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 4 (SP4) and later, Windows Me, Windows 98, and Windows 95 OSR2. Windows Sockets version 2.2 is also supported on Windows 95 with the Windows Socket 2 Update. Applications on these platforms should normally request Winsock 2.2 by setting the wVersionRequested parameter accordingly.

We need this for the move to IPv6 during the next years.

But thanks for the link. There is a version made according to the recommendations in the link, here:
