Hello,

I tried to compile HTTP client code in C in Cygwin.. but -lsocket -lnsl
flags give me errors in compilation.

> gcc -o wc wc.c -lsocket -lnsl
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cann
ot find -lsocket
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Any comment on dealing with this problem would be very helpful to me.
Thanks in advance!
