Programming :: Socket Programming - Connect To An IRC Server In A C
Mar 16, 2010
I am looking to be able to connect to an IRC server in a C program. I have followed some instructions from an old book I have however it doesn't seem to be working. I've tried connecting to localhost on my ssh port and it still doesn't want to work. This is what I have so far as a piece of skeleton test code:
Code:
#include<sys/types.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<sys/socket.h>
#include<unistd.h>
#include<netinet/in.h>
#include<arpa/inet.h>
[Code]....

i have a server program which accept multiple client connection and am using polling. like every 2 secs it will look to client whether any data is received after it binded. i have used setitimer but there is runtime error i got.. the server accept all client connection but doesn't execute any msg which client sent.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<sys/socket.h>
#include<sys/types.h>
#include<netdb.h>
#include<unistd.h>
#include<pthread.h>
#include<string.h>

iam just trying to connect to server which accepts one client and server will read(blocking operation) infinitely, but After closing the client socket the server "read operation" is returning zero and "errno variable(in errno.h)" value is also zero. how can i detect whether a client socket is closed/active..?
client.c
Serv_Addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
Serv_Addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
Serv_Addr.sin_port = htons(26553);
if( 0 > connect (Serv_Fds,&Serv_Addr,sizeof(Serv_Addr)) )
{
perror("connect");
return 0;

I have a customer who is complaining that they can connect to prt y on IP x with telnet. They are seeing the following:
telnet x.x.x.x y
Trying x.x.x.x...
Connected to x.x.x.x.
Escape character is '^]'.
after some time the connection of course times out. Connection closed by foreign host. There is no telnet service running on this port so they cannot do anything, but they are complaining tht the fact that telnet "connects" is a security risk. I am having difficulty explaining why they are able to connect with telnet. I know it has to do with the socket layer API in Linux but I am having difficulty explaining this sufficiently. I also can't just say "this is the way linux works" to them. I am looking through "UNIX Network Programming" by W.

I wrote a code in C to connect to MySQL by using mysql_real_connect function but I recieved error "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)" (by using mysql_error function).
I also did the following things: in mysql I typed 'SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%SOCKET%'', it returned /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock I typed 'mysql_config --socket' in shell, it returned /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock I modified /etc/my.cnf file

I have a server listening on incoming client connections. Once the client establishes SSL connection with the server, the server waits on read() from the client. Only Client can disconnect the connection. I want to have a timer in the server program to wait for x secs after read() and then disconnect the Client connection.

Reading some examples on net and copying some codes I was able to build a (frankstein) server that accept connection from one client and receive and send messages to it. The big problem that shows up is that I don't know when client disconnects from my server.
I've been looking for a solution, but no success. I'd read about SO_KEEPALIVE option (which could solve my problem), but I don't know how to use it (how to check the value of it).
I can't use ping because the server (machine) could be running, but not the client (software).
Anyone knows a good tutorial or how to (for beginners like me xD) of TcpIp sockets using c/c++ and how to detect when a client disconnect?
I don't know sockets very well.

I am currently programming a suite of daemons in c++ on CentOS 64. More or less all those daemons are SOAP servers, with the SOAP part handled by gSOAP.
One of the daemons is a monitor sitting on a certain server and more or less just checking if the other daemons are up and running - but also offering a SOAP interface to get the 'current situation' on the machine.
Whenever the detected situation does not correspond to the defined (i.E. a process which should be is not running) it is started up.
This part, I implemented via a system() call that starts the other process.
I was a little confused when lately often this monitoring process would not start because it could not bind its server port - the one the SOAP server is listening on.
And confusion got bigger when netstat told me that the port is assigned to one of the processes that were before started by the monitor..?
Even better: if I then kill the process of which netstat tells me it holds the port, the next netstat shows the next monitor-started process as the one listening on the port..
Only if I kill all the processes that were started by the monitor, the port is released and I am able to launch the monitor again.
Now I wonder: why does this port get 'reassigned' to the children - and most of all: how can I prevent this from happening?

I'm trying implement a small server for a university work, my server is creating, binding and listening but it don't accept any connection, these are the files I'm using in server:
Code:
// Definition of the Socket class
#ifndef SOCKET_H
#define SOCKET_H
#include <sys/types.h>
code....
I've made a client just for test it, but no ones run well, the server is always returning -1 when accept is called!!
What should I do to send and receive messages in this server??

i'm writing a simple program of client socket program. Here below is the code sample which i'm writing...
Code:
//tcp_client.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <netdb.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
[Code].....
the above code works fine.if we copmile and run ./a.exe 192.xx.xx.xxx 1111 and press enter it works fine..everytime it asks "Please enter the message: " and if give that will be displayed in server. but my problem is i dont want to print everytime "Please enter the message: " i just want to feed some words one by one to the socket.

im getting that error in my code for some reason. I compiled my code, and when i try to run this server it throws me an error on my call to setsocketopt(). The only way it can reach that part of my loop is if it succeeds when it calls sock() so I dont understand why the error says its an operation on a non-socket. Im just trying to set up a server to pass messages from a client to it a viceversa. Here is the code:
Code:
int main()
{
int socket_fd, new_socket_fd, k;
struct addrinfo hints, *server_info, *p;
struct sockaddr_storage peer_address;
code....

When sending data over the socket, the sending socket includes 0x00 after each sent byte. I wonder how this can be avoided -- I just want to transfer the data in the tx_buffer as it is.
# ./serv &
[1] 6895
# ./EUG 127.0.0.1
EUG: Data to be transmitted: 0x35 0x32 0x30 0xff 0x03 0x31
EUG: Data - #Bytes transmitted: 6
./serv: Here is the message: '5'

Is it possible to swap a client ip and port ? This is what I am trying to do. Let say you have Comp1 and Comp2 And you have Server between them. My goal is to get Comp1 and Comp2 know each others IP So Comp1 connects to server And server stores comp1's IP In a text file or other place And Comp2 connect to server And server also stores his info And then both comp1 and comp2 dowload the tex file And use the info on it.

I'm building a simple(?) socket server using threads to serve up a few requests. The spec is such that I have to listen to three ports at once, so I decided to use pthread to create three separate threads that would wait for connections, then spawn new threads to handle them.
The problem is that when I do this, for some reason the program never enters the wait loop and instead terminates (All three threads did get created since the messages get printed properly.) It gets to the line which prints "???", but not the line after the accept() call.I don't see an open port when I check for one either so I'm 99% sure they're terminating.Basically I have a main() method which has three calls to pthread_create, which should result in three threads being run that all wait for connections (listenOnPort). After each thread creation I print some info to make sure it's actually being created.
By the way, when I just run listenOnPortwithout threading, the server appears to enter the loop correctly and seems to be waiting for requests. It's only when I run the functions as threads that the problem seems to happen.The source is attached below. Any help will be appreciated. Much of the code is borrowed from a website (I can't post it because I am new here.) You need not worry about the handler_ methods because those are just methods that are run by the threads themselves.
Also--the original source was in C and I changed it to C++. Should I just use C?
server.h Code: /*
* server.h

This is my main question:Quote: In raw socket sniffing: how do I copy data from a structure into a char[] or pointer? My problem: I started doing some raw socket programming in OpenWRT (I'm a newbie) for research. It's been a long time since the last time I programmed in C, so here's my newbie question/problem.
I'm receiving packets and using an .h file with the structures to get the information of each 802.11 packet in monitor mode (attached to this post).My (simple) goal is to get the Tx MAC Address. No luck. This is my "read the prism header" function:
Code:
ParsePrismHeader(unsigned char *packet,int len)
{
wlan_header *wlan;ieee_802_11_header *i802;u_int16_t eth_type;
unsigned char *mac;unsigned char *mac2;
wlan = (wlan_header *)packet;
i802 = (ieee_802_11_header *)(packet + wlan->msglen);

I am currently doing a research on video transmission over wireless LAN. I tend to transmit my offline file (xx.svc) from server to client.It may sound stupid (since I have a very little knowledge about c programming and raw socket), but my biggest challenges is that when I want to write the file to the buffer, how actually to define/include the file at the programming coding? where I need to locate the file? Is it at the same folder with my c programming, or somewhere in the linuxinclude folder?
Can anyone just give a simple example on how to include a file and write it into a buffer before send it through raw socket.

I have currently had the need to go back to basic socket programming, and implemented a simple udp packet sender. But I realized I needed to be able to select which network interface to send the packets from.
The reason is so that one of the interfaces has vlan tagging, and I need my UDP packets to be accordingly vlan tagged. For example, one of the interfaces is eth1.200.

Has anyone had an issue with gdb not being able to send a UDP msg across a socket?
I have ComponentA sending a msg to ComponentB utilizing gdb. ComponentB gets the msg. ComponentB sends a msg to ComponentC. ComponentC does stuff to the msg and sends a msg back to ComponentB using gdb.
ComponentB never seems to receive the 2nd message.
If I don't use gdb the messages Tx and Rx without an issue.
I'm flying blind without gdb to figure out a different bug.

I've tried /etc/init.d/mysql start, and it actually starts, or at least, it doesn't error out. But when I do pgrep mysql I get nothing, and when I try to login with mysql -p as root, I get
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
None of my other logins work, either, but since pgrep mysql didn't work, it's clear that MySQL just isn't running. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling mysql-server via apt-get, but I get the same thing. The logs in /var/log/syslog show this:

I have an e-mail production server that has been running fine for almost two years.
Notice mail was not serving today and login to a bunch of errors in messages
However, I think they are all from not being able to access MySQL and when I:
mysql -u root -p
I get:

(Let me first of all state that I am a newbie to any form of programming.) I have been trying to create an IP header + TCP header and send this to another machine on my network.using C)I used the normal stuff: two structures for the headers, a sockaddr_in structure, call to function socket with SOCK_RAW, setsockopt with HDRINCL and call to sendto.All functions seem to return fine (values other then -1) the function that I have used to calculate the checksum for the IPheader matches the value that I manually calculated. I just don?t see the anything coming out of the interface on whireshark.I assumed that it had something do with my piece of code so I used two examples (including mixter void ru rawip html A brief programming tutorial in C for raw sockets[/url]). They show exactly the same thing functions return fine but no packets being send.I use Ubuntu 9.04 2.6.28-14-genericThe machine has two interfaces one with an ip address the other interface is in promiscuous mode. (both interfaces connected to a switch with port mirroring) I can see all normal traffic in/out.

I am programming an application with an ARM device with an embedded version of Linux. My application talks to a java application via socket. If there is any connection problems, it attempts the connection again. My problem is that after exactly 146 times, there is a Segmentation Fault. Apparently this happens in opening the socket, which is not successful after this amount of attempts.
Following, some code that I'm using:
