Hi, maybe this is a silly question, I hope to be clear: what I want is to have a server, and once a connection is established (by using accept and then fork) use the connect() function to connect to another application using the parameters that the client that connect to my server gave me. I hope its clear and I don't think is something very complicated, but I need an example code.

If its not clear don't hesitate to ask. Thanks in advance.

yes, you want to have your program be teh server for one application, adn the client for another, this is entirely possible. You just set up 2 seperate sockets, one is a listenign socket and one is a connectign socket. Typically they are done is different threads, but they can be done in a single thread.
