Which language do you use? In principle it is of course possible, e.g. using getchar to read from a file and then putchar to write to the socket (in C)

Create a FILE * for the socket and for the file to read from.
Then its simply a

Code:
putc(getc(file), socket)

Of course storing this in a variable would make it a little bit clearer, but in principle this should also work

Of course it's possible, it's basically what a netcat link does on the command line. However, you can't bypass the send/receive buffer of the network stack, as that's a driver/kernel system.

If you need information on socket programming, this is a good starting point.

Which method? I didn't mention any method, only that it's possible. You'll have to be far more specific if you want any meaningful answer here. Also, showing some initiative and researching answers yourself is highly appreciated.
