client-server programs

i am learning to write UNIX socket and client programs.

i wrote the UNIX socket server program, this program uses a socket to wait for any incoming messages and then displays them on screen. i use the server ports 5010 to 5019.

and i compile server.c with the command "gcc server.c -o server -lsocket -lnsl".


i also wrote the UNIX socket client program, client.c that will send messages to the server program. i compile the program using gcc compiler; "gcc client.c -o client -lsocket -lnsl"

i tested the programs using two telnet sessions (one for server program and other for client program) at my PC. ( both telnet sessions r logged to the remote UNIX system and i just run both programs there.)

my problem is, the server does not display messages on screen when the client send messages to this server. ( i don't know where is the problem)

how can i modify both programs such that the server sends a reply message to the client upon receipt of a client's message??

below is the client.c and server.c

Code:

I have not used UNIX but why not wait for the data to come and then say that the data is recieved like:

PHP Code:

---

              int i;
              //................................

                while (i != 0)
                {
               len = recv(snew, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
    buf[len] = NULL;

                }
                printf("Message received....%s\n", buf);
                 //....................
