Hi,
I got a UPS package tonight from a nice editor at Addison Wesley.
Would anyone like to review "Network Programming with Perl" by
Lincoln Stein? Here are the chapters:
1 Input/Output Basics
2 Processes, Pipes, and Signals
3 Introduction to Berkeley Sockets
4 The TCP Protocol
5 The IO::Socket API
6 FTP and Telnet
7 SMTP: Sending Mail
8 POP, IMAP, and NNTP: Processing Mail and Netnews
9 Web Clients
10 Forking Servers and the inetd Daemon
11 Multithreaded Applications
12 Multiplexed Applications
13 Nonblocking I/O
14 Bulletproofing Servers
15 Preforking and Prethreading
16 IO::Poll
17 TCP Urgent Data
18 The UDP Protocol
19 UDP Servers
20 Broadcasting
21 Multicasting
22 UNIX-Domain Sockets
The book looks pretty nice. Lincoln has a reputation for writing
clear examples, and even aside from all that, it's typeset well.
But enough of that. Anyone with a decent background in the above
stuff want to give this thing a gander and report back to the group?
Walter
