close(client_sockfd);
}//End of while
}//End of main
}

i get one error, passing arg 1 of fread makes pointer from integer without a cast.

Cant figure it out, wat the fupp is wrong with it !!

deRanged

that message means you're passing a basic type in instead
of a pointer.

fread expects a void* for its first param,
you're passing in *buffer,
but buffer is effectively a char *,
so after you dereference it you pass in a char.
that's why you're getting that message.

just pass in buffer.

did that make any sense?
