( if not i guess using libnet will resolve the pb but better to have every thing based on the same infrastructure) - I would like to have the tool work with wireless protocol , does Netfilter support non Ethernet proto and 802.11 particulary? any advices will be really appreciated. also , any partner for the project is welcome.
