P2P Application

[Roberto]

Hi all.
I need an application which must act as client and server at the same time
(just like a p2p application).
Server must accept multiple connections and client can start at any time.
I don't have a basic knowledge about fork() and threads in C, so can you
counsile me any website or other resource where I can find this kind of
application?
Thanks in advance

Roberto

comp.unix.programmer is worth a look, but your best bet is "Advanced
Programming in the Unix Environment", by W Richard Stevens, available from
all good bookshops. (Check in c.u.p., though, in case there's an even
better bet, although frankly I doubt it.)

Similarly off-topic, but helpful, I hope:

Should you need to use the word again, it is spelled "counsel". The
error is understandable, since it comes from the Latin "consiliari" as
does the Italian "consigliare".

There is another English word, "council" (Italian "consiglio") similar
in sound, origin, and meaning to the noun "counsel", but you will not
easily find examples of "counsil" in literate English.
