Does anyone know of a good book (or online reference) for writing Tcp/ip
socket communications to a non-standard protocol. Any sample code would
be great..

I've used "The Pocket Guide to TCP/IP Sockets" by Michael J. Donahoo and Kenneth L. Calvert (ISBN: 1-55860-686-6) quite frequently for work with sockets.

Or if someone could point me towards the necessary class
files that would be helpful.

There aren't any classes in Cocoa that will directly do TCP/IP communication, but you've got some options if you don't want to do low-level socket programming...

1. Use CFSocket from CoreFoundation
2. Do the low-level socket setup, then pass the socket to an NSFileHandle for reading and writing
3. Use one of these frameworks: <http://www.stepwise.com/Articles/Technical/2003-04-22.01.html>
