If you want, you could add more intelligence to the Linux end of the connection; it could e.g. filter out broadcast, UDP and ICMP packets. I think that a simple ad-hoc network is a better idea. If you want some more challenge in the implementation, make all nodes equal and have them automatically detect the network topology and figure out node addresses. You could add e.g. a PC to that network via a custom interface, if you want to have a file server or such. Marko - This message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing list.
