no, it waits for a remote socket to "connect". it does not read any
data from the remote side. from all your posts, it seems you miss the
very basics of network programming. at least that's the impression i
got, sorry if i'm wrong. so i suggest you first try to get your hands
on a book, or at least some online tutorials. you should read the
man pages for open (), close(), socket (), connect(), listen(), accept
(), read() and write().

btw. your posted source was completly messed up (no indention) so i
didn't even bother reading it. posting with a real name wouldn't hurt
either.

best regards ...
