The Tcpip stack your friend uses for DOS, will not work at all, once the big switch from Ipv4 to Ipv6 occurs on the Internet. Therefore its important to find a Tcpip stack for DOS that will be supported in the near future. Also you want to ask your friend what his application is, or what DOS broswer he will use. This is important because it seems that most DOS Tcpip stacks are programmed with hooks to integrate a specific DOS application/browser or vice versa. If you know a Tcpip programmer your in good shape otherwise you will have rely on a commercial Tcpip stack that costs money and may only work with that vendors specific applications. The main issue is getting your application or browser working with a Tcpip stack under DOS. Some commercial sources are: "DrDos", "Web boy" or "webboy" that most search engines should be able to pull up via these keywords. Another source may be "FreeDos", "OpenDos" or some "Embedded Dos" products.
