Yes I stand corrected, from what I can tell any current version of
Linux with 2.4 kernel, and GNU C/C++ 2.96 or 3.2 will work with
all the examples...assuming IPC support is installed etc.
The author mentions that the programs are tested on Red Hat 7.3,
8.0 and Solaris 2.8, and shows specific results of programs for
these configurations.
Other recommendations, which are, of course, classics.
W. Richard Stevens' books
"Unix Network Programming Networking APIs: Socket and XTI"
Volume 1, Second Edition (I think there is a third edition that drops XTI)
"Unix Network Programming: Interprocerss Communications"
Volume 2, Second Edition
For more info on C and C++
