Uhm, just wondering what's wrong with the code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <winsock.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
WSADATA wsaData;
if (WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2,2), &wsaData) != 0)
return 0;

SOCKET hSocket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP);
if (hSocket == INVALID_SOCKET)
{
WSACleanup();
return 0;
}

SOCKADDR_IN sockAddr;
sockAddr.sin_port = htons(6667);
sockAddr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
sockAddr.sin_family = AF_INET;

if (connect(hSocket, (SOCKADDR *)&sockAddr, sizeof(sockAddr)) != 0)
{
WSACleanup();
return 0;
}

char buffer[260], temp[260];

while (1)
{
int bytesRcv = recv(hSocket, buffer, sizeof(buffer), 0);

if (bytesRcv != 0 || bytesRcv != SOCKET_ERROR)
{
printf("%s", buffer);

if (strstr(buffer, "No ident response") != NULL)
{
sprintf(temp, "USER something something something :something");
send(hSocket, temp, strlen(temp), 0);

sprintf(temp, "NICK something");
send(hSocket, temp, strlen(temp), 0);
}
} else break;
}

return 0;
}


Btw, I have my own ircd that I downloaded..
After receiving the message "No ident response", it should send a "user" and "nick" message and then after that the server should send me back a "ping" message..
Thanks in advance.. ;)

Uhm, just wondering what's wrong with the code:
Isn't it your job to tell us what's wrong with the code, and our job to tell you how to fix it? I'm confused now.

All IRC commands must be terminated with \r\n.

Yupz. . Got it working a while ago.. I added the \r\n. Hehe Anyways, am I writing the code correctly? Cause I noticed in one source code that it did a memset before putting another value at my variable buffer or temp.. Do i need to add that?:D

if you check the return value of the recv and work according to it - you do not need the memset beforehead

should not this be posted in network section?

anyway. does anybody know why this happened:

i found my ip by visiting a site (modem based 64kbps net)
then wrote a simple server and asked my brother to connect to me using winxp telnet!
but he could not connect! why??
