I am getting this error: "Fatal error: Call to undefined function
socket()" even after reinstalling php4 and php5 with the following
configuration: ./configure --with-gd=/usr/local --with-mysql --enable-
libgcc --with-gettext --enable-sockets.

From all the articles I've found on this problem adding --enable-
sockets fixed the problem, but no such luck this time. the script I
was trying to run can be found here: http://www.onlamp.com/php/2001/03/29.../listing1.html

OS: fedora core5.
PHP: v4.4.2, 4.4.8, 5.2.6

There is no such function socket(). It's socket_create(), socket_bind(),
etc. At least it is with PHP 5.2.6 and 4.4.7. I don't know what's up with the
O'Reilly onlamp.com example except it is probably really, really old.

Thanks, you nailed it. I changed the function names and that fixed
it.
