Why don’t you google? 😉 – Alex PS: it might be more wise to learn the concept of sockets from the low- level, like C (POSIX), instead of using them right away in any high- level language like Ruby. ---

Check archives, this guy is creating new threads with every problem he faces, programing in general, langue choice, implementation, computers, all here, most of his questions are ultra-basic, and are described in Pickaxe, CS books, or google (usually one good search returns 5-10 pages with answers to his question) so sarcasm is necessary (i doubt he’ll understand it tho), also i never seen him thank for answers someone gave him or post more then one post in thread he started(except for one case when he asked additional question) ---

I also started to figure out about sockets. I would suggest reading this introducing tutorial in C: [http://www.cs.rpi.edu/courses/sysprog/sockets/sock.html](http://www.cs.rpi.edu/courses/sysprog/sockets/sock.html) It describes exactly what is needed for sockets. Also reading the doc could be helpfull but take care because some of the samples are broken:[http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/socket/rdoc/index.html](http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/socket/rdoc/index.html) ---
