if you want to learn about sockets I recommend reading this guide.
http://beej.us/guide/bgnet/...
is does require some prev knowledge of unix things, but easy to follow otherwise -
PSA: If you do reverse proxying stuff, prefer unix domain sockets over localhost internet sockets, if it's on the same machine (and if it's forwarded over ssh too). You can even serve HTTP as a unix socket.
Unix domain sockets don't have the overhead of IP, so generally speaking, data will flow to your other process with much less overhead.
I've recently stopped being lazy at this, and it's worth it.3
