Abstract

In most cases, network communication is all about providing and accessing services. This chapter introduces the support offered by the Java programming language for various communication-based services. Control and diagnostic services including Packet InterNet Groper and Internet Control Message Protocol are presented. Electronic mail services making use of the SMTP and POP3 protocols, file transfer services using FTP, and web content transfer via HTTP are described. Java database connectivity services and programming support for database management systems communication are also discussed. The chapter ends with a presentation of the increasingly popular multimedia content delivery services.
