FWIW I have seen questions about this previously but have not sen any answers. Perhaps it was you I don't know. try the archives at marc.theaimsgroup.com. They archive the linux-net list .... In fact take a look at this and see if it is pointing in the right direction. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-net&m=104930510428818&w=2 IF no luck try the linux-net list. A couple of years ago a lot of the coders working on the networking code were there.
