Hi,

Is it possible to open a TCP socket as read_only from a process, so
that I can open another socket in another process with the same ip\port
as write_only?

Thanks,
Hakim

No. You'll probably want to read unix network programming btw.

I didn't find any trick to do this so I thought some experts out there
may know something like this.

Thanks for confirming this.

You can still open the socket in one process, hand a copy of the socket
to another process, and only read in one and only write in the other.
