Beginner needs help with sockets!

[papp]

I have been trying now, with little success, to write a program under
SUN OS using sockets, to communicate between two different machines.
I do not have any reference books available -- suggestions would be 
appreciated!  If anyone out in net-land has a piece of fairly simple
and straightforward C code that creates the sockets and passes
information back and forth, I would greatly appreciate a look-see.

thanks!
