RE: Socket programming



****** ABSOLUTELY ******

Get that book!  I have that book myself and it is INVALUABLE!!!!
Sockets are covered but so are a myraid other U*NX networking issues.
Highly recommended for anyone writing U*NX network code.
"Unix Network Programming Volume 1" by Stevens is solid gold.
