Re: SOCKET Connect() connects but shouldn't.

Straight off of Scott's website. I can't remember if this is from the first 
sample sockets program or one of the later ones there, but I think it's the 
same prototype regardless:
 ** --------------------------------------------------------------------   
 **   connect() -- Connect to a host.                                      
 **                                                                        
 **      int connect(int socket_descriptor,                                
 **                  struct sockaddr *destination,                         
 **                  int address_length)                                   
 **                                                                        
 **      Used to connect to a host.  (Usually used on the client-side)     
 **      In TCP applications, this takes an address & port and connects    
 **      to a server program thats listening on that port.   In UDP        
 **      this simply specifies the address & port to send to.              
 **                                                                        
 ** --------------------------------------------------------------------

And the code itself...

 C                   Endif
