creating a telnet daemon

[tyfon]

Hi to all!
Here's the deal:I want to create a telnet client and a telnet server (in C)just to practise and to learn some things about how exactly these services work(i would like to try an ssh daemon later ;) )
I just want to ask where could i find the documentation I need? I know C,but dont have a clue about how I am goin to do this thing....
Thanks in advance

search google.

have a look on sourceforge, im sure theres millions of projects like this!

http://www.planet-source-code.com
http://www.programmersheaven.com

and check the RFC, these are important documents that detail how something should work.

(its rfc854)

I thought i'd be nice and give you the like -

Have a look through the FreeBSD sources:

A tiny bit off topic.. my telnet replacement daemon: http://tp2.be/cvs/ansid/

http://tp2.be/cvs/ansid/ansidaemon.c?rev=1.2&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

this one runs on port 2003 (unpriv) and needs iptables (or something) to throw it on port 23

Thanks to all for answering....I 've just visited the liks the RFC page seems alot interesting but I should read it carefully...also the BSD sources may be useful to me in order to fully understand what I should do...jinx the link you said takes quite alot to load so I didn't see it (I have aptitude running!;) )
i2c thanks for the comment! :) in fact malakas means ******* and yamas means hi!Have you ever been to Greece?A lot of tourists were here during the stupid Olympic Games (just a waste of money and an exposition of new drugs for athletes)
