Yes, I belive this to be trivial. However, as I have no deep understanding of networking and newer browsed any kernel source before, I expect it to be a hard time finding the right spot to implement it ;-) > and of incoming ones (tough).

Sorry for this newbe level ;-) But what deside if a packege is past thru 'as is' or properly repackaged? I did belive everything pasing the kernel whas repackaged, but then stuff like ARP must contain the (in my case) 'wrong' MAC-adress somewhere else :-( Thanks /Lars -- Lars Hallberg Micro++ www.micropp.se/ Freeware * C/C++ * Python * Linux * Debian * HTML * Javascript
