Can someone tell me of a good resource to learn how to write an server/client for the internet, using C? I'm planning on writing a game, if that helps define what I need. Thanks. (btw. time is an issue, so the shorter, the better =)

It depends on what environment you're going to use. An excellent book in any case is:

UNIX Network Programming - W. Richard Stevens

Even if you're going to use the Winsock API, this is a good book to read as much of Winsock is derived from Berkely Sockets.

OK That sounds good. (I'm going to be doing it in Linux, so that should be fine) It isn't too long though, is it? I'm going to be going through a C book (to refresh my memory =), and I want to have time to do some programming, too! =)
