UNIX Network programming

[thmnetwork]

I'm trying to put together a summer class for me and a few of my classmates. The class will be given a credit this fall. The Topic will be Unix Network Programming for Unix. We will have some IBM R6000's to work on, with AIX 4.2 and/or yellow dog (as yet to be determined if/how much a role each with play)

I need textbook suggestions and a listing of what you guys would think would be good course objectives for the clas. we have 3 weeks to be finalized in our outline, it will be class-driven instruction (aka just us, no teach).

as for books I've already took a gander at:

http://www.course.com/catalog/product.cfm?isbn=0-534-14232-X&CFID=273300&CFTOKEN=67753492
--OR--
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/stores/detail/-/books/013490012X/103-4389951-1517458

but I'm wanting to keep my options open just incase one of you guys throw any pearls at me.


please respond back,
joel

Your second link is a good book. But, the book which you have selected is a older revision. There is a newer version out. I haven't read the one you showed, but I'll bet the content is fairly similar. TCP/IP Illustrated Volumes 1 and 2 would be a good choice also.
