Can anyone help? I'm trying to write a program which will write to a socket. I can get the server to run, but always get an error when I try to connect.

It gives me an error at the "connect" command.

It's probably a simple error, but I can't seem to find it.



#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {

int outgoing, newSock, i;
struct sockaddr_in sad;
char buf;
char action[255];
FILE *command;

if(argc < 4) {
printf("Wrong command line arguments");
return 1;
}

outgoing=socket(PF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,0);
if(outgoing == -1) {
printf("Unable to create socket");
return 1;
}

sad.sin_family=AF_INET;
sad.sin_port=atoi(argv[2]);
sad.sin_addr.s_addr=inet_addr(argv[1]);

if(connect(outgoing, (struct sockaddr *) &sad, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) == -1) {
printf("Cannot connect to address %s port %s", argv[1], argv[2]);
return 1;
}

send(outgoing, argv[3], strlen(argv[3]), 0);
while(recv(outgoing, &buf, 1, 0))
printf("%c", buf);

return 0;

}
