Client & Server

[EllisIsland]

I would like to write an Ap which "listens" for data on a particular socket and a client ap which attempts to connect and send data via TCP/IP to the listening socket.

can anyone recommend a useful book?

Is Java the best language to use?

Any help gratefully accepted.

Thanks
