simple client/server in linux

i am working on a C code,
i have client and server
client sends "list <foldername>"
server needs to copy the files in the folder to a string.
so that i can send that string back to the client.
i heard there is a function to handle this in linux, do you know?

With
>server needs to copy the files in the folder to a string.
Did you mean server needs serve the client with file names in the folder, or with content in these files?

Either ways, ftp/sftp does the job --- but is that what you are looking for?
