Suggest a good book for Unix/Linux Network programming

06-15-2002, 09:27 PM

Hi !!

Could anyone suggest a good book on Network programming, preferably in C ? There are a number of books out there and a number of opinions about those books, like some say that "UNIX Network Porgramming" by Richard Stevens is a good book while some said that the book is not really worth it. Could anyone please help ? Thanks in advance.

I don't actually know this book, but I have Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment, also by Stevens, and it is one of the most consistently useful books I have. I can't really rate the network programming book, but the author is excellent.
