Hi

I've just started programing, using C language and UDP Sockets (in Linux);
(so I have a few problems)


I have two programs (client and server);
    -Client send (interactive) request information about server network
configuration (/sbin/ifconfig)

        -Server
                if(!strcasecmp(dgram,"interface")){
          should do this request
                system("/sbin/ifconfig")
           and send it to client
                ??????? HOW ??????

Simple use
            variable1 = system("/sbin/ifconfig")
            sprintf("%s",variable1)
 doesn't work (problem with buffer, even I set it bigger),
  if I change sprintf into printf - information about network configuration
    will be appear on server screen - of course,

    but how send it to Client?
(maybe first write to file, and then to buffer - gradually, after this send
it to Client
 - if it's good idea - how write it?

Big thanks for any answer

with regards
Martin
