Ehhhh don't worry about it. There's too much to learn in this game. That little subject is confussing, but as Paul pointed out, TLI vs. SOC are internal API implementations that are irrelevant to what happens on the network wire. (Berkely) Sockets are an earlier defacto standard for implementing networking using TCP, UDP and friends. TLI came into existence when a standards committee got together and decided to formalise everything. Apparently they are mildly different for the programmer, but I've never seen a difference that means anything in my modest efforts at little network programming tasks. -- I have a simple philosophy that gets me through life: Never buy cheap toilet paper. Learn to know what is important, and what is not important. - Replies directly to this message will go to an account that may not be checked for a week or two.
