Hello All Fedora Lonux TCP/IP experts,

Hi!!

This is an urgent issue, which needs to be resolved at the earliest time!!!

Given platform : Fedora Linux OS(free open source), Version 16, with GCC (GNU compiler) and 2 C language programs, where one is jc.c which is a client program, and  jsvc.c , which is a server program.

Problem: Both the programs compiled with warnings, which I had ignored. Most importantly, the server program is failing to bind the process to its port.

Reasons, which could not be explored yet, and not known to my knowledge.

Issues: 

(1) On my system, in fedora linux environment, I failed to create two terminals, for executing two programs as a cient and and another as a server.

Can we not have two terminals at a time in one fedora linux environment.

(2) Kindly let me know why the server program is failing at the point of bind(...) function call.

What is wrong wioth my parameters, or anything else if I have missed ??

Kindly let me know!!

(3) Is it necessary to execute both the client and server programs in two different systems in a LAN.

I had earlier run both the processes in one system, however long time back, hence I forgot the exact hardware specfication ( that had in the system). But I remember it was DEC System, having all the GUI interface, in which I could have as many terminals as I wanted.

Note : In the given environment, of Linux fedora operating system, I can nt have more than one terminal ..? Any ideas, why there is such a limitation..? Is it that because of the stand along installation etc.

Kindly reply me all the answers, with server program binding well  and exceutes such that, it goes into listening mode and the client program connects to it and finally sends a message to it before closing the connection.


Thank you in advance,
Jyotishmaan Ray
