Raw IP packets on Linux

[Mike Ayers]

I am trying to compose raw IP packets on Linux, then send them out a chosen
interface.  So I do:

sock = socket.socket( socket.AF_PACKET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM )
sock.bind(( '192.168.1.3' ))

So far so good.  I create a packet (pkt) which contains the complete IP
datagram.  ID is set to 0 to tell the kernel to stamp it for me.  However, I am
so far unable to send the packet (pretend ']' is '>'):

]]] sock.sendto( pkt, ('192.168.1.4', 0))
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
socket.error: (19, 'No such device')


What am I getting wrong here?   What address type does this socket expect?


Thanks,
