IP Socket - IP Networking

comcaps · #1 (**permalink**) 11-23-2005

Please need to setup a IP Socket on SCO Open Server 5.06 / 5.07 to a Linux machine.

Al that I want to do is via a simple shell command open a tcpip address, port number, and send a call to a progam with a name of a file on the linux box.

My programming language does not support socket programming, so I need to to a call to a shell command when needed.

Have no time to study the socket programming inteface. Need a quick fix.

Thanks

If you're just about to send a text string to another socket server you can simply use Netcat (netcat or nc) if it's avaiable @ SCO.

read the manpages.
