Socket Programming with stream sockets over local area network

Question

I am learning inter-process communication. I want to create server that can listen to client distributed over actual local area network. I have IP address as well as symbolic name of those machines. I can implement sever and client on single machine but I don't know how to do same on different machines on network. Can anyone direct me to appropriate resources or tell me how to do it ?

Thanks

It's the same. The only difference is that you need to use the server ip address instead of the local address when you connect the client socket.
