About A comprehensive guide for Linux Network (Socket) programming

I skimmed through it and it looks good.

Since I didn’t see this in the list of references, I have to ask — have you heard of the (famous) Beej’s Guide to Network Programming [1]? It’s a classic (in the sense that it’s been around for a long, long time and goes into many more details) on this topic.

Beej’s was great for me when I was doing some socket programming in C for my OS class in grad school. Classic and invaluable resource.

beej was also a great place to take the first steps in network programming :) I just updated my reference list. This is one of my missing piece. Thank you for the reminder.

Was just skimming the comments for a mention of Beej's guide, was about to post almost the same comment.

What an amazing resource.

I feel like the last time I looked at it, it has been updated too so was pretty current.

Also agree the OP looks like a good guide.
