server client application - (i really need your help)

[sarahnetworking]

Hello,

I have developed a client server application using C.

i have a list of usernames and a list of passwords in a text file. i need to be able to do 2 loops so i can send the usernames and the passwords to the server and get a response back. basically its a ftp force attack to find the correct username and password. i have written most of the code but i'm kind of strugling to finish it off and sort out the errors. this is a task we have to do for university. i have tried different books and websites and still can't sort out the errors. i really need your help.

Any advice would be most helpfull

this is the client part:

{

exit(1);
}
 
servIP = argv[1]; /* First arg: server IP address (dotted quad) */

This type of code tends to be platform specific. What you may want to do is isolate your testing to major components. Is the connection made? Is the username received? Is the password received?

i did get a connection before i added the loop in my handeltcpclient.c
there seems to be a problem with my stringcompare(strcmp and strncpy) can't sort out the errors tho. im using bluefish editor in linux to compile the program. have u got any ideas how to get rid of the errors? i would really appreciate it if you could help me to sort it out as this task is worth 50% of the module and i've never done c programming before

If you send us the errors you're getting we may be able to help
