writing dhcp client code using sockets on Linux

dash · 08-04-2009, 02:21 AM

Hi all,

I want to write a generic network module.
I want to register my device on network with DHCP.

I want to program it in C using sockets on linux platform.
So can anybody suggest me a good link or good book regarding overall network programming and specifically regarding writing dhcp client code using sockets.

Any kind of help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,
./dash

You shouldn't bump a 7 year old thread to ask a question.

At any rate, look at some of the book suggestions in this thread. They seem to match what you are looking for.
