    google.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    RFCs are a good source for a lot of protocols

    Well... you can start by reading the screen... you will discover there's a search function...

    When you're done with PPP, feel free to replace it with the name of the protocol of your choice.

    If it takes this much effort just to get you to STFW, you're not ready for network programming.

    I bet you haven't even read the intro threads in the networking subforum yet.

    If you look up a protocol in wikipedia, the article will contain references to the relevant RFCs. Just plaining googling "RFC PPP" usually works too, they are all online somewhere.

    Beware that some RFC's supersede previous ones, and the "archaeology" of the web can screw you up with outdated material, esp. with protocols that have not changed much in decades (except for ...). Wikipedia is great for this because the material is kept up to date and usually of good quality.
    C programming resources:
    GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
    The C Book -- nice online learner guide
    Current ISO draft standard
    CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository
    3 (different) GNU debugger tutorials: #1 -- #2 -- #3
    cpwiki -- our wiki on sourceforge

    wotsit.org is also good for protocalls.
