So I feel I pretty well understand the application layer, and everything below (and including) the transport layer. The session and presentation layers, though, I don't fully understand. I've read the simplistic descriptions in Wikipedia, but it doesn't have an example of why separating out those layers is useful. So: What is the se...

I am planning to use winpcap to do some user application stuff and not just sniffing. I will be receiving and sending critical information using pcap which I am currently do...

I could be wrong, but I don't believe I can use sockets for this type of connection. I'm looking for examples on how to create an application that can communicate over the transport layer (eit...
