Hi, I am trying to spoof a packet, I have written a kernel module, once it gets a modified TCP packet(source and dest interchanged, ack seq interchanged) it calls netif_rx (skb) to inject this into the routing path. but I am unable to make this packet reach the correct socket. Any clues on this, can I check some kernel stats to know where and why the packet is being dropped. The various reasons cld be : 1. incorrect tcp or ip check sums, i calculate both myself 2. in the skb->dev field i set the value to the value of skb->dev field of any incoming valid packet : when i get the first packet on netfilter pre routing hook -- i do a memcpy(&my_net_dev, skb->dev, sizeof(struct net_device)); then for the modified TCP packet i set skb->dev=&my_net_dev. So maybe it gets dropped cos of some problem here(or is there any obvious problem here ?) so how do i isolate the problem ? any clues ?? thanks Amit "DISCLAIMER: This message is proprietary to Hughes Software Systems Limited (HSS) and is intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
