	! notes      : 1) BASIC will not allow you to %include a file containing line numbers so...
	!	     : 2) this file should be broken up into separte files (one per function) or...
	!	     : 3) this whole file can be compiled without line numbers then linked to the source

	! 108 NSR 140905 1. original file (derived from the bottom of: TCPIP$TCP_CLIENT_QIO_2014F_107.BAS)
	! 109 NSR 140930 1. started work on an alternate dns routine called nsr_dns_ghnt
	!		 2. now include [.inc]WCSM_TCP_SUPPORT_109.INC
	!     NSR 150109 3. bug fix in nsr_dns_ghbn (forgot to invoke qtol)						bf_109.3
	!     NSR 150710 4. now include [.inc]wcsm_tcp_nvt_definitions_108.INC (109 is missing during Itanium conversion)
	!     NSR 150923 5. socket shutdown after dns lookup was optional with TCPware but appears to be superfluous with
	!		    "TCPIP Services" (in fact, it always exits with error 20); I'll keep paranoid enabled until I
	!		    can test with MultiNet but you will only see the error message if debug is enabled		bf_109.5

	! 3) the next character will be one of WILL WONT DO DONT (or SB)
	! 4) if receiving WILL (offering) then reply with DO   (yes) or DONT (no)
	! 5) if receiving DO (requesting) then reply with WILL (yes) or WONT (no)
	! 6) you must agree to support DO TERM_TYPE to connect to Solaris

	! 8) you reply with somthing like: IAC SB TT x00 VT100 IAC SE (where: x00 = IS)
	! 9) a quick scan of the RFCs indicates "WONT must be acked with DONT" and "DONT must be acked with WONT"
