RE: 101-OpenSSL question..

[Matthew Smith]

Simple but stupid…Why don’t you just capture packets coming into a box…on the lower levels of the osi, modify the packet and send to the higher levels of the osi.. Why do you need to use OpenSSL… Let us know .. give me some more hints..     Regards, Matthew Smith (MCSE,CNE,CCNA,CCIE) TigerNET Pty Ltd :   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 25 December 2001 6:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 101-OpenSSL question..     Hi expert guys,..   :)   I'm starting a class project which requires handling a packet after encryption it, and before transmi it to the IP layer. I want to to add a header and modify the current IP address of the packet.    The steps -- in summery -- are as follow:   ************************************************** 1- Packet encryption. (I have nothing to do with it) -------------------------------------- 2- My work:       Get a packet.       Add my own header information to it.       Modify the IP address.       Pass it to the next layer. -------------------------------------- 3- Send it to TCP/IP layer for transmit  (I have nothing to do with it too)   **************************************************      So I need your help to step me in the first step of this project, I need to know from where to start. I download the OpenSSL project, and I found 1500 files ,,!!!   So would you mind pointing me out to the files that I should start modifying and playing with.   Any information is valuable to me and appreciated  :)   Thanks alot.   Dave.
