[comp.unix.questions] socket io size restrictions

pcb@gator.cacs.usl.edu (Peter C. Bahrs) (03/06/90)

I am working on SUN 3 and SparcStations on NSF.  Is there a network limitation
to the size of a message that can be written to a socket?
i.e.
   N = 1024 or 10000 or 50000 or ...

   x = write (sock, buff, N);

thanks in advance
