Article ID: 155675 - Last Review: November 15, 2006 - Revision: 1.1 IPX Headers Not Returned to WinSock ProgramThis article was previously published under Q155675 SYMPTOMS
If the Windows Sockets setsockopt() API is called with the IPX_RECVHDR
option set, the call will return a status of "success," but IPX headers
will not be received when the recv() API is called.
CAUSE
There is a problem in the Windows Sockets support using the Microsoft
IPX/SPX-compatible protocol, in that IPX headers are not returned with the
WinSock data, even though it appears that the IPX_RECVHDR option is
successfully set when calling setsockopt().
STATUS
This problem no longer occurs in Windows 98. To resolve this problem, install the current version of Windows. For information about the current version of Windows, visit http://www.microsoft.com/windows
