On a SUN Solaris machine in MTF:
1. Download the server
file and the client
file.
2. Compile the server and client.
2.1 Compile the server
using the following command.
gcc -o server server.c -lsocket
-lnsl
2.2 Compile the client using the following
command.
gcc -o client client.c -lsocket -lnsl
3. Start the programs. (Assume that you start the server at your
current machine, which is called xyz.)
3.1 Start the
server.
./server 12500
Note:
Let the server keep running. (You can use Control + C to stop it at
anytime)
3.2 Start a client.
./client xyz
12500
Note: You may run client and server programs on
the same machine or different machines.
4. Test the programs.
4.1
Start running the server first and then the client.
4.2 At the client
side, you will be prompted for an input. After an input is entered,
the
server will print the input message and then the client will print the same
message.
