Is it possible to make my DOS C programs interface with the internet?

I have no idea... It's probrably stupid tho!

You need a TCP/IP stack which implements the protocols which allow you to talk to the net.

I've seen a couple of $$$ implementations, but never anything free.

It's usually just a lot easier to use Win32 or Unix/GNU-Linux

You can also use cygwin under DOS (well, Windows Console anyway). Then you can use this tutorial and code.

Thanx peeps, but the windows thing is the problem - It has to run under pure DOS...

well first of all you have to worry about the bigger problem of finding a network card driver and tcp/ip stack implimentation for dos (or write your own, ewwwwwwwwwwwww)

and then windows xp and win2k arn't able to run dos programs...
