I'm trying to write a program with AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, where client connects to server sends it message "First message" and then the server responds to client with "Second message".
Q1: In my code server receives "First message", however client doesn't get server response "Second message", why?
Q2: In client I connect to server using msg_addr.sin_addr.s_addr =INADDR_ANY; I would like to change it for something like: msg_addr.sin_addr.s_addr =htonl(inet_addr("172.126.154.12")); where ip "172.126.154.12"is server ip;

In server code change recvfrom() call as this
socklen_t addrsize;
recvfrom(event.data.fd,&msg,sizeof(Msg),0 ,&msg_addr, &addrsize);
and change subsequent sendto() call as this
sendto(event.data.fd,&msg,sizeof(Msg),0 ,(struct sockaddr*)&msg_addr, addrsize);

I've written the client code and the server, however, there is a problem with connect: "No route to host". It is strange because clients and servers operate in a different network. Also, if I ping [my ip] tells me timeout, if I telnet [my ip] tells me error. Can you advise me how to solve this problem? I opened port 2222 from the router but it still does not seem to work.

server.c -> always recv client data(use poll() to confirm whether an error occurred)
client.c -> always send data to server
I exec server.c and client.c ,then i try to kill client.c process.
But the POLLERR flag never be set.
The man page only say
POLLERR Error condition (output only)
When does Poll() return POLLERR?
What did I miss?
Thanks.

It's implementation dependent. Most applications just treat POLLERR the same as normal readiness, allowing the subsequent operation to fail.
i've done a simple client/server program where the server wait for an external connection and return the connection-socket if the port number of the client is in the range of [1025-2048] otherwise return -1. The problem is that when i get the port number by the client adress (which should be stored in the sockaddr structure) it says me that the client port number is zero, but in the client program i've set the client portnumber to 1999.

If i get the port number in client with a printf("%d", ntohs(local_addr.sin_port)) it stamps correctly 1999, but if i get the port number of client in server with printf("%d", ntohs(client_addr.sin_port)) it stamps 0. Why?
thanks in advance!
In order to obtain the client port number in client_addr through accept you have to tell accept how big that buffer is by setting
socklen_t len = sizeof(client_addr);
You can alternatively retrieve it by calling afterwards
len = sizeof(client_addr);
getpeername(fd_socket_acc, (struct sockaddr*)&client_addr, &len);
Maybe because you do not set the variable len to anything, and I suspect that your compiler sets it to 0.
What happens is that you try to accept with an undefined len size.
Adding len=sizeof( struct sockaddr_in ); before making a call to accept would help to fill the passed client_addr correctly.
Want to do client-server programming using c in windows7, it should send string to server using http POST method. The paramater in POST method should include the ip-address etc:

The error which is coming on MinGW compiler is:
httppost.c:33:12: error: conflicting types for 'WSAGetLastError'
In file included from httppost.c:5:0:
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/../../../../include/winsock2.h:594:32: n
e: previous declaration of 'WSAGetLastError' was here
The code you've got is under linux based systems, but in MinGW (Windows) unfortunately the identifier h_errno is taken before.
The problem is this line
extern int h_errno;
it's defined previously in windows header files, then you can not use it:
#define h_errno WSAGetLastError()
Just use another identifier instead of h_errno, or even just remove that line!
Maybe you should try the wininet library.

I have a problem, I have a client server udp, in server side I need to access data from client side to control movement of the robot. For the experiment I use to print "oke" if the value of the data is 1.
here the code program:

#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

char buf[MAXBUFLEN];

{
printf("‐‐‐‐‐ PROGRAM CHATTING ‐‐‐‐‐\n");
if((sockfd=socket(AF_INET,SOCK_DGRAM,0))==-1){
perror("socket");
exit(1); }
my_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
my_addr.sin_port = htons(MYPORT);
my_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;

{
perror("sendto");
exit(1);
}
}
close(sockfd);
return 0;
}
when I put "1" in client side the result is:
‐‐‐‐‐ PROGRAM CHATTING ‐‐‐‐‐
130.130.66.76 : "1"
Me :
even in the program there are:
if (buf[0]==1)
{ printf("oke\n");}
why the program cannot access to inside of if?
Try if (buf[0]=='1')
Number characters map to different ASCII values than their number, so, for example, '1'==49.
