I've decided I want to try and learn more about the technicalities of our
TCP/IP network at work (not Internet connected).  Reading books, etc.  is
fine but I reckon the best way to do so is to try and program something.  I
thought a simple Telnet prog would be a good start.

BUT, I don't know how...!  I'd like to write it in C - it's not a C
tutorial I'm after, I'd like to know how to 'program TCP/IP'?

Could anyone point me in the direction of any relevant book, texts, rfc's,
etc. please? Obviously, the less the cost, the better.

Cheers,
