How to output to a buffer and send to client?

[yezi]

Hi:

I am coding a client and server program in C. My task is receive the
command from the client and output the system call in server side and
output to client side.

Say client ----> "date" -----> to server
server execution "date" and put the output to client side and result
showed in client.

My question is if the command is "ls -al" then the result is very bid,
how can transport whole the result to client side?


Thanks for any comments

the news group comp.lang.c only deals with the standard C language.
Standard C does not know anything about "clients" or "servers",
I think you need to repost your question to a Unix news group.
