You basically open a socket, 'accept' incoming connections (which
opens individual sockets for them) and service them at appropriate times.
A good intro to socket programming is:

There are of course many fine points about socket programming, but

I wrote a set of socket classes in a day (then threw it away and
redesigned/coded it again). It is fairly easy to wrap the C stuff and
make it portable.
