I'd like to know what advantage if any, there is in using
send()  [ or sendto(), or sendmsg()], over plain old
write()

I'd also be hapy to leran if there's a more appropriate newsgroup :-)

So what you use depends on the type of connection you have.  Remember, TCP
is a stream of data, no message boundaries.  UDP must use fixed-size packets.
And remember UDP packets can get lost, and it's up to you to make the reliable
by resending lost packets, while TCP takes care of that for you.
