Hello all,
I am computer programmer hobbyist who has done alil programmer here and
there but what I am very interested in is Network programming; coding
servers, clients, such.... I was wondering how good is Ruby for doing
networking programming?
And if so is there any good resources online about how I could learn the
networking side of Ruby??
Thank you...

Ruby works well for this stuff. Check out the Gserver class. It will get you a long way towards your goal.

I know about the difference between TCP and UDP sockets, and how to
design a basic client/server pair to text with IP over the command-line.
I know the basics its just the next step.

Are they any resources online about networking in ruby besides the IBM
"Socket programming in ruby" and the docs on the ruby web site?

Maybe he should start with TCPServer and TCPSocket to know the basics.
Kind regards

I think IBM "Socket programming in ruby" is good enough to study networking
in ruby.
How about study more about BSD Socket or analyze networking library written
in Ruby just like eventmachine?

Maybe I wasn't clear enough: when I said "Maybe he should start with
TCPServer and TCPSocket to know the basics." I was referring to Ruby
classes:
http://rdoc.info/stdlib/socket/TCPServer
http://rdoc.info/stdlib/socket/TCPSocket
See here for more

The chapter of the book Programming Ruby by Dave Thomas and Andy Hunt called "The Socket API" is available online for free at Search. I can thoroughly recommend the rest of the book (not for free) too.

Learn from legendary Japanese Ruby hacker Masatoshi Seki in this first English-language book on his own Distributed Ruby library. You'll find out about distributed computing, advanced Ruby concepts and techniques, and the philosophy of the Ruby way---straight from the source.
