man page.

Read your local man page on socket(2). Most of the functions in the sockets extension
return >= 0 on success and < 0 on error.
Reclassified as a documentation problem.
Docs writers: feel free to bug me on the semantics of the functions in the module and
such :)

Something like
if ( ($iSockFD = socket (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM,0) ) != 0) {
print "Call to socket() failed: reason: " . strerror ($iSockFD) . "n";
exit();
}
That results in an "Unknown error 4294967293" message from strerror() in Linux kernel
2.2.16.. A "Unknown error: -3" in FreeBSD 4.0 -- no matter what user I am, this error
occurs on both operating systems..
