I've had several marketing types approach me recently for details as to whether or not Microsoft was using the BSD TCP/IP stack and/or user utilities, and though it's always been "common knowledge" in the community that they were, when I set about to "prove" it I found it to be less easy than I'd thought. I've strings'd various binaries and DLLs in my copy of Windows 98 but have yet to find anything resembling proof. Does anyone out there have any details or discovery techniques for confirming or disproving this assertion either way? It would be very useful (for us) from a PR standpoint to know.
