Hum, I think got a server like it finally right, if you could take a look at the code under EchoServer: Main Page , I think this code is correct tough right? At least it's working perfectly.
It's an ECHO server, simple, that when it receives the string "STOP SERVER\n" it echoes it, and kills the server, gracefully.
If this is correct (I still need to do some code cleaning), I may be rewriting the bucket sort server using this way as a guide line.

Thanks a lot.

Also, why I can't use pipe() and socket()???
