It's easy, mmmkay :) You need to set the socket descriptor in non-blocking mode, then call accept. accept will fail and return -1 with errno set to EWOULDBLOCK, the call select(2) on the socket. select will return when a connection arrives (you need to test for it) or when the timeout expires. I (and everybody else) recommend "Unix Network Programming, 2d Ed" by Rich Stevens. It is THE book for unix programmers.
