CONNECT(2)        Linux Programmers Manual        CONNECT(2)

NAME
       connect - initiate a connection on a socket

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/socket.h>

       int connect(int sockfd, const struct sockaddr
       *serv_addr, socklen_t addrlen);

DESCRIPTION
       The file  descriptor sockfd  must refer to  a socket.
       If  the  socket  is   of  type  SOCK_DGRAM  then  the
       serv_addr address  is the address  to which datagrams
       are sent by default,  and the only address from which
       datagrams are received.

       [...]
