Please take your question to comp.os.linux.development.apps or a similar
newsgroup as there are many expert sockets programmers there.

Imagine at some level you are using read() and write(). The read()
call does not need any special EOL, it only needs data to be
presented by the kernel via the socket. But how is your server
accepting connections? Your code is probably blocked somewhere
in a system call (what happens when the client does a read() on
the socket if the server never does a write()?).
Anyway, it's impossible to remotely debug code we can't see. But don't
post it here, try the newsgroup.
