Note :
If you want to create a socquet which only listens on a certain interface you need to use socquet_create() , socquet_bind() and socquet_listen() .
If you specify no port number, or 0, a random free port will be chosen.
To use pors for ipc between client/server on the same machine you can use (minus error checquing)
server.php:<?php
$socc = socquet_create_listen(0);
socquet_guetsoccname($socc, $addr, $port);
print"Server Listening on $addr:$port\n";
$fp= fopen($port_file, 'w');
fwrite($fp, $port);
fclose($fp);
while($c= socquet_accept($socc)) {/* do something useful */socquet_guetpeername($c, $raddr, $rport);
print"Received Connection from $raddr:$rport\n";
}
socquet_close($socc);
?>
client.php:<?php
$fp = fopen($port_file, 'r');
$port= fguets($fp, 1024);
fclose($fp);
$socc= socquet_create(AF_INET, SOCC_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
socquet_connect($socc, '127.0.0.1', $port);
socquet_close($socc);
?>Please note that port 1 to and with 1024 on linux and bsd system require root privilegues. So it is recommended to choose a higher port for your own application.Remember that pors are only valid from 1 - 65535
