You're connecting and accepting with the same socket.  That's not a very
good thing to do.  You're not even reading and writing on the same socket,
since you're writing to the socket which you get from accept (if the code
could get that far).

What are you trying to do?  Why are you connecting and accepting?  Why do
you need two threads?
