New Winsock Netsh commands

source

Detailed description

Two new Netsh commands are available in Windows XP Service Pack 2.

• netsh winsock reset catalog

  This command resets the Winsock catalog to the default configuration. This can be useful if a malformed LSP is installed that results in loss of network connectivity. While use of this command can restore network connectivity, it should be used with care because any previously-installed LSPs will need to be re-installed.

• netsh winsock show catalog

  This command displays the list of Winsock LSPs that are installed on the computer.
