Does anyone know of any GOOD network programming book(s) that are C# based,
as well as any online tutorials and forums on network programming?

Thanks
 
What do you need a book for? Just read the help. Sockets programming is the
same in any language - it comes in two flavours, blocking and non-blocking,
and you have to be good with threads and streams. What could a book possibly
add to this that wouldn't be Cooperesque nursemaiding?

The VS help was all I had and I put together an embedded webserver the same
day. The hardest part of doing it was message-based thread synchronisation,
and dotnet makes even that pretty easy.

If you want to have a look at it I suppose I could mail you the code, it's
not exactly complicated.

Not complicated if you know how the async threading and streams work.

Yeah, there is one I think. Google this group, someguy has a link to it in
his sig.

The secret is to bang the rocks together, guys!
 
I have both:
Professional .NET Network Programming
C# Network Programming

I would probably get both. If you really want to learn WinSock, I would get
"Windows Sockets Network Programming" by Bob Quinn. Not c#, but you will
understand sockets and socket programming when your done. One of those
books you must read if your into network programming IMHO.
 
Hi,

NO AFAIK, but any book regarding network programming can give you good idea
of how it's done, also check for .net books usually they have a networking
chapter


cheers,
