Thanks,

This sounds like what I need. I do certainly want to keep is as native as
possible.

Jens.

It also should be noted that while libpcap doesn't support sending raw
packets on Linux, the Linux sockets library does support it natively.
The big advantage to having it winpcap is the mere fact that no native
API exists in the Win32 world to send raw packets, so in that respect
WinPcap is a godsend.  On a Linux environment it is not necessary.

So, unless you have your heart set on using the same portable code on
both Linux and Win32, you shouldn't need to download the libpcap tip...
Just take a look at the "packet, PF_PACKET(7)" man pages on linux for a
discussion of sending raw socket data.
