please help!! Hey,first of all i guess my question will be simple for most of you,but take it easy i am just a newcomer ok? Here is the problem: I have a server program which accepts one of the strings "e","w","n","s" and returns "+" or "-" depending on the situation.And i am trying to write a client program which communicates with the string.I write the code below for testing: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/in.h> int main(int argc,char *argv[]) { char *dest_ip; char *dest_port; int sockfd; struct sockaddr_in dest_addr; int test1,test2,test3; dest_ip = argv[1]; dest_port = argv[2]; /*NETWORK CONNECTIONS*/ sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); dest_addr.sin_family = AF_INET; dest_addr.sin_port = htons(atoi(dest_port)); dest_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(dest_ip); memset(&(dest_addr.sin_zero), ''\0'', 8); test 1 = connect(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&dest_addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr)); char *msgs = "s"; char *msgr; int len =strlen(msgs); test2 = send(sockfd,msgs,len,0); test3 = recv(sockfd,msgr,len,0); printf("%d %d %d",test1,test2,test3); return 0; } In normal cases i guess i should see 0 1 1 on the screen but i see 0 1 0 how hard i tried!I can''t receive response from the server,what might be the possible problem?Please help me cause it''s soooooo important.

If you are recieving a 0 from a recv command then the sonnection has been "gracefully closed" so possibly the server isnt sending anything back but instead closing the connection
