Novell NetWare - IPX Driver - OPEN SOCKET

BX = 0000h
AL = socket longevity
00h open until close or terminate
FFh open until close
DX = socket number (high byte in DL)
0000h dynamic allocation
else  socket to open (see #03809)

Return:
AL = return code 00h success DX = socket number FEh socket table full FFh socket already open

Notes: TSRs which need to use sockets should set AL to FFh, non-resident programs should normally use AL=00h. IPX can be configured to support up to 150 open sockets on a workstation, and defaults to 20. This function is supported by Advanced NetWare 1.02+
