TCP/IP Sockets?

[TheCreator]

Hey Im relatively new to c++ but I would be interested in learning about how to use tcp/ip sockets. I know pointers, arrays, try/catch, linked lists, preprocessor handling and a bit more. I don't know much else so could someone recommend a VERY simple tutorial on TCP/IP sockets? OR if possible even show me how to basically do it on the forum?
I have a windows and mac computer so I could use whichever platform is easier to work with.

You might be better off working with an existing networking library. I would suggest you take a look at Boost.Asio and winsock but i will urge you play with the former first and if you wish to delve deeper look at winsock.

Boost.Asio: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/doc/html/boost_asio/tutorial.html
