Book Description

This is a list of frequently asked questions, with answers about programming TCP/IP applications in UNIC with the sockets interface.

This FAQ is for C programmers in the Unix environment. It is not intended for WinSock programmers, or for Perl, Java, etc. The authors have nothing against Windows or Perl, but they had to limit the scope of the FAQ for the first draft.

In the future, The authors would really like to provide examples for Perl, Java, and maybe others. For now though they will concentrate on correctness and completeness for C.

Network programming, a challenging topic in C, is made easy to understand with a careful exposition of socket programming APIs. This FAQ gets you started with modern network programming in C and the right use of relevant operating system APIs.
