Hi. I'm basically a crappy programmer so far. I teach myself on my off-time and I'm doing it in such a random manner that I finally decided to buckle down and stick with one language and make myself a project. My first project is to, in C++, write a program that checks my ports for any external devices connected to it and to print them out on the screen. (I believe I'm right in using the word port here). Can someone explain to me what exactly servers and clients are and if I am right in my assumption that I need to use a client in my project.

This is in C, but well worth the read and easy to convert into c++.
