I can tell you offhand that there is no such thing. Dos has no network
support and needs to rely on third party libraries and utilities.

FTP is not a part of the C++ language. The only way to access the internet
is to use a library provided by a third party, such as the Unix POSIX
socket library.

If you want to go ahead and write your own PPP, TCP/IP and FTP
implementation, you should ask news:comp.os.msdos.programmer, and check
with sites that contain the specifications for PPP, TCP/IP and FTP.
