Thread: socket error

I am tring to create a program that will let me loggin to irc... but.. i keep getting

Connecting to server...
NOTICE AUTH :*** Looking up your hostname.....
NOTICE AUTH :*** Checking Ident
NOTICE AUTH :*** Found your hostname
NOTICE AUTH :*** Got Ident response

ERROR :Closing Link: [[email protected]]

well i made it that far to get it connected.. but it wont give me all the info that it should.. so that i can join a chan etc..

anyways.. here is the code ( please take it easy im new to socket and am really stressed about not remembering somethings so streesed i can cry)

Code:

#define MYPORT 6667

int main( )
{

    struct sockaddr_in mysock;
     struct sockaddr_in tosock;
     struct hostent *addr;
     int s_sock, s_conn, x;
     int len, s_send, s_recv;
     char *p_buff, buff[525];
     char *msg;
     
     
     if((s_sock = socket( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 )) == -1 )
     {
       fprintf( stderr, "Error on SOCKET( )" );
        return 1;
     }
     
    /* fgets( buff, 20, stdin );
     printf("xlordt suxz 1\n");
     */
     mysock.sin_family = AF_INET;
     mysock.sin_port = htons( MYPORT );
     mysock.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr( "66.252.6.72" );
     
     if((s_conn = connect( s_sock, ( struct sockaddr *)&mysock, sizeof mysock)) == -1 )
     {
        fprintf( stderr, "Error on SOCKET( )" );
        return 1;
     }
     
     printf( "Connecting to server...\n" );
     
     p_buff = buff;
     p_buff = (char *)malloc( 64 * sizeof( char ));
     for( x=0; x < 25; x++ )
     {
       if((s_recv = recv( s_sock, p_buff, sizeof p_buff, 0 )) == -1 )
       {
          fprintf( stderr, "Error on RECV( )" );
          return 1;
       }
       
   
       printf( "%s", p_buff );
       msg = "PING";
       len = strlen( msg );
       send( s_sock, msg, len, 0 );
       recv( s_sock, p_buff, sizeof p_buff, 0 );
       printf( "%s", p_buff );
       
     }
    
     
     msg="/nick hmmmm";
     len = strlen( msg );
     
     if((s_send = send( s_sock, msg, len, 0 )) == -1 )
     {
        strerror( errno );
        return 1;
     }
     
     msg="/join #chan";
     len = strlen( msg );
     
     if((s_send = send( s_sock, msg, len, 0 )) == -1 )
     {
        strerror( errno );
        return 1;
     }
     
     return 0;
     
     close( s_sock );
  }

I am just going crazy tring new $$$$ here.. =/
