Subject: Create and send packet from kernel

I am trying (in vain) to create and send a single TCP packet from kernel,
from scratch (i.e. sk_buff and sock both need to be created and
initialized). I read the source code for various functions in net and
net/ipv4 but I am not sure I am doing all steps and in correct order, as
the kernel keeps crashing. Is there a sample code someone could send me or
a good book on this matter? I am using 2.4.9 version.

If this question is not appropriate for this list, could someone point me
to more suitable list?

Thanks
Jelena

The following is the code i once downloaded from the net... Apart from
this one, the code of khttpd (linux/net/khttpd) would be very useful...

Go through thug_receive, thug_accept, thug_send, thug_listen... They
should be sufficient for most of the networking...
