Thinking of writing a compiler? This online book by P.D. Terry may be helpful in getting you started.
- BSD Sockets: A Quick and Dirty Primer
As its title states, this is a "quick and dirty" tutorial to writing programs with BSD sockets (which is the basis of the sockets implementation in many OSes, even Windows). In my opinion, the best way to learn to write sockets programs is to buy a good book on it - there are a number of good books listed on the Frequently Recommended Books on Writing Internet Programs / Sockets Programming / Winsock Programming page.
- Unix Socket FAQ
If you are writing sockets programs, you might be interested in the Unix Socket FAQ which answers the commonly asked questions about socket programming.
