After accepting connection on socket of server side. we can
get the client ip address and port by to functions. These
functions are belonging in "/usr/include/arpa/inet.h" header
file.
Here is some scratch from the code.
socket2 = accept(socket1, (struct sockaddr *)&client, &addrlen);
printf("%s\n",inet_ntoa(client.sin_addr));
printf("%d\n",(int) ntohs(client.sin_port));

After the Accept Call in server Program..
ClientFD = accept(SockFD,(struct sockaddr *)&ClientAddr,(int*)&SinSize);
You will get Client IP and Port Number using this --
printf(" Server got a connection from Client (%s : %d)\n",
inet_ntoa(ClientAddr.sin_addr),ntohs(ClientAddr.sin_port));
