Try using libnet. It's cross platform.

Google "Beej's guide to network programming." It's a great tutorial for starting network programming, and works under windows too (on win32 you just have to include winsock2.h and startup winsock for the most part) with a little editing.

(@mad_guy) yeah its pretty good, thanks.
(@frankish): (I'd use ACE if that was the point) Thanks but it wouldn't help. Im reading the Richard Stevens tcp/ip implementation vol 2. (great fuckin book) Its a detailed guide reviewing every line of networking code in the bsd 4.3 kernel. These books can turn someone into a networking sage. I've read (not in the stevens book)that the socket.h api is very error prone and overly complex; I want to try out a few things myself...

I use Boost.Asio, It hasn't been officially accepted by Boost yet but is in the review stages and will surely be accepted in the a future release.
