As far as I know, there isn't a standardized C++ API for network
stuff; most C++ programs use the C socket API (the rest use some kind
of nonstandardized wrapper library).  Consequently, most/all of the
documentation talks about it from a C PoV.  You really can't get
around learning it - fortunately, it's pretty easy, especially if you
know C++.

The best network programming reference is "UNIX Network Programming"
by W. Richard Stevens.
