Hello,

Could someone tell me what a "native" socket is?
What is the difference between a "native" socket and a "non-native" socket?

Thank you.
 
I believe a native socket is an OS's existing application socket. It doesn't have to be created.

Unix IS user friendly... It's just selective about who its friends are.
 
Thank you very much for the reply, zebratech.
It helped me a lot, and I really appreciate that.
