NODE 9f6655e8Writing A Remailer William Davidheiser <wgd@netcom.com>Sat, 19 Oct 1996 10:32:42 -0700 (PDT)

Hi all. I want to try to write a re-mailer that will run on my ISP's UNIX
shell account. I am familiar with Windows socket programming (C/C++) but
have never done anything in the UNIX environment.

Any pointers on where I should start?

Thx a bunch ---

you'll find that most of the socket function names were stolen from UNIX
anyway...

try 'man <FUNCTION>' at the prompt, were function is a sockets function,
if its in UNIX, it'll tell you the full documentation of the function.

and if you want to do unix programming, www.linux.org and follow the
links to Linux Documentation Project.  Similarly for www.freebsd.org.
