Unix Domain Socket: Using datagram communication between one server process and several client processes

Question

I would like to establish an IPC connection between several processes on Linux. I have never used UNIX sockets before, and thus I don\'t know if this is the correct approach

Answer 1

You should look into IP multicasting instead of Unix-domain anything. At present you are just trying to write to nowhere. And if you connect to one client you will only be writing to that client.

This stuff doesn't work the way you seem to think it does.
