socket program help

Hi,

I'm writing a client-server socket program. the client will be an instance of the well-known telnet application. i want to implement a simple authentication between the server and the client.
- the client should send this message (after the connection established): my password "anypassword"
and the server will check, if it's not the same password that's hardcoded in the server program, the server close connection.

so the client will be like that:

1.telnet server
2. got connected
3. provide password, if it's not coreect server close connection


here is my server application:

Code:
