SOCK_PACKET

Issam_Haddad · September 28, 2001, 2:11pm

Is there an equivalent way to create a SOCK_PACKET socket (as in Linux)
where I can write directly to an interface? I need to be able to create and
send ARP packets directly.

Thanks

There is a port of the libpcap that should allow you raw access to packets.
