    Simple Networking Program in C

    Hey, this is the server program part of my program. It's pretty simple, I've provided the link of my code. The problem I am having is that when I compile, everything compiles fine, but when I try to execute i get these errors. Here's my code to view it, its pretty short. Ive also documented it as well. Please help

    http://sourcepost.sytes.net/sourcevi...ource_id=14412

    is where my code will be.

    below is the error i get when trying to execute.

    --------------------Configuration: Server - Win32 Debug--------------------
    Linking...
    Server.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _snprintf
    Server.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _accept@12
    Server.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _listen@8
    Server.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _bind@12
    Server.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _htons@4
    Server.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _htonl@4
    Server.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _socket@12
    Debug/Server.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 7 unresolved externals
    Error executing link.exe.

    Server.exe - 8 error(s), 0 warning(s)

    I think you have to link with winsock, so go to your compiler options and add "-lwinsock" or something similar, research windows sockets on google.com
    Help populate a c/c++ help irc channel
    server: irc://irc.efnet.net
