SMPP application

[voidtech]

Hi,

I am trying to make an app which connects to a SMPP(simple message paging protocol) service on a Unix box on port 444 and send it two strings and receives response.

I would like to create a small dialog based application in MFC which includes only two edit boxes and one push button. The first edit box would contain a string being the pager ID. The second would be the message body. So, these two strings are sent:

PAGE <username>

DATA <message body>

I am totally new to sockets programming but I thought this may not be too difficult. If someone could point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it. :)

Thanks in advance.
