Did you add wsock32.lib to the command-line thing? You have to do more than
just add it to the project. I haven't used VC++ in a while, but you have to
have it linked in on compile.

That wouldn't work. I think the IS_CMD macro is for what the player types
in the room with the spec_proc. You would have to make something that is
checked when someone enters the room. May I suggest MobProgs or, even
better,
DG Scripts?
