Getting down with sockets

client.c

    {
      printf("\n Error : Could not create socket \n");
      return 1;
    }

server.c

  char sendBuff[1025];  
  int numrv;  
 
  listenfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
  printf("socket retrieve success\n");
  
  memset(&serv_addr, '0', sizeof(serv_addr));
  memset(sendBuff, '0', sizeof(sendBuff));
      
  serv_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;    
  serv_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_ANY); 
  serv_addr.sin_port = htons(5000);    
 
  bind(listenfd, (struct sockaddr*)&serv_addr,sizeof(serv_addr));
  
  if(listen(listenfd, 10) == -1){
      printf("Failed to listen\n");
      return -1;
  }
     
  
  while(1)
    {
      
      connfd = accept(listenfd, (struct sockaddr*)NULL ,NULL); // accept awaiting request
  
      strcpy(sendBuff, "Message from server");
      write(connfd, sendBuff, strlen(sendBuff));
 
      close(connfd);    
      sleep(1);
    }
 
 
  return 0;
}

Standard GCC compilation then, run server then client.
To see it working socket use:

sudo netstat -ntlp
