int socket ( int family , int type , int protocol );

family  --  always set to AF_INET
type  --  SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_DGRAM, or SOCK_RAW
protocol  --  set to zero (let the system decide)
returns --  socket number allocated (zero is a legal socket number)

int connect ( int socket , struct sockaddr * server , int addrlen );

socket  --  socket number from socket() call
server  --  struct sockaddr_in type. Must be cast in call. Contains the address of the server to connect to.
addrlen  --  length of structure
returns -- zero on success
