whois server

[zychos]

I am getting the following errors when i gcc my code:

44) unixs1 $ gcc whoisserver.c
whoisserver.c: In function `main':

I know my libraries are correct and was looking for help resolving the undefined symbols.

Thanks for the help.

You are on Solaris, right? Add -lsocket -lnsl to the command line. That will pick up the necessary libraries.
