Hello everyone out there, I'm a new person to this forum as well as a new programmer to Java. I have questions on how to do sockets and network programming in java, hope anyone one of you can help me out (as detail as possible would be MUCH appreciated).
I want to setup a system of 20 nodes(workstations) by just using Java's socket programming. There are reliable TCP connections between EACH pair of nodes, and I am to send timestamped messages over those connections.
I only know how to setup the simple 1 Server to Multi-Client scenario, because it is shown in most Java books, however, for the situation described above I am pretty clueless.
