Socket Programming


Hi,

I have developed an application using VC++ using win32 API. This is customised email server which received and sends emails. I want to port that server application in Linux.

There we have winsoc for socket programming. How i can do this in Linux.
Please give me any useful link for socket programming in Linux.

Thanks
