I have no idea why send data is 48 bytes 010,0,0..., someone can explain? the problem is buffer for data received, I don't know how big he should be, and even if I receive data, how to make normal time from it?
Here's the code:
#include <iostream>
#define _WINSOCK_DEPRECATED_NO_WARNINGS
#define WIN32_MEAN_AND_LEAN
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <time.h>
using namespace std;

m_pMessage("") {}
virtual ~HRException() {}

m_pMessage(pMessage) {}
const char * what() { return m_pMessage; }
private:
const char *m_pMessage;
};

throw HRException("could not resolve hostname.");
// Extract primary IP address from hostent structure:
if (pHostent->h_addr_list && pHostent->h_addr_list[0])
return *reinterpret_cast<IPNumber*>(pHostent->h_addr_list[0]);
return 0;
}
void FillSockAddr(sockaddr_in *pSockAddr, const char *pServerName, int portNumber)
{
// Set family, port and find IP
pSockAddr->sin_family = AF_INET;
pSockAddr->sin_port = htons(portNumber);
pSockAddr->sin_addr.S_un.S_addr = FindHostIP(pServerName);
}

bool bSuccess = true;
try

}
catch (HRException e)
{

}
if (hSocket != INVALID_SOCKET)
{

}
return bSuccess;
}
