Good for you. That has nothing to do with FreeBSD, of course.

Of course it is possible, depending on a suitable definition of "minimal".
Try this for size: http://www-ccs.cs.umass.edu/~shri/iPic.html

And if it were not possible, then you shouldn't have taken it as a project
work, should you?

How long is a piece of string? If you don't know anything about programming
practices or TCP/IP, or can't be bothered to research the TCP/IP protocols
for yourself, then I would say the coding capability required is higher than
you possess.

I find it interesting that you think of a mailing list as a "man".

I hope this is quick enough for you. Before you post to any more mailing
lists, there is a very useful guide here which I suggest you read:
