The book only covers > 0 or <0, but nothing about equal to 0. So please confirm this with me. If connect() system call return a value < 0 then connection is not success. If connect() system call return a value > 0 then the socket successully connect What if connect() return a value == 0? And this is my case. To me, It's means my connection is success correct? Thanks alot Grace
