I had one developer with over 6 years of server-side experience who made a server/client setup where the server would open a connection to the client, pass connection info to the client, close the connection, and then have the client open a connection back to the server to return results.

When I explained how TCP worked, in that the client could connect to the server and maintain an open socket to pass info continuously he was blown away. He had no idea this was possible. Explaining UDP was a lot harder.

So, I welcome any education on basic TCP/IP functionality!
