I have two questions. (1) in bsd when a socket is created, the process creating the socket is passed as a structure to so_create call. in linux how can we have this mechanism by which when a socket is created we can access the task_t of the process creating the socket? (2) given the sk_buff* how to lookup the associated socket? --Bhatt Kartikey Mahendra _________________________________________________________________ Get Citibank Home Loan ! http://go.msnserver.com/IN/52043.asp At an unbelievably low interest rate.
