    If the only means of communicating with server.exe is thru the port, then you need to know the port just to communicate, right? So simply hardcode the other program with that port number.
    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

    There is a way to do it on unix/Linux but I don't know about Windows...a combination of lsof and grep will do it on Linux...
    C/C++ Environment: GNU CC/Emacs
    Make system: CMake
    Debuggers: Valgrind/GDB
