    3way handshake raw sockets

    Hi
    I'm trying to use raw sockets to connect to a server, when my program sends a syn packet the server repleys with a syn ack , but then my computer sends a rst.
    I think the kernel thinks the port doesn't have anything running on it and close the handshake.

    Thanks

    You can't expect the kernel to stop doing its normal kernel things (like running the TCP/IP stack in the background) just because you start doing something weird like sending raw packets... It has no idea you are doing that.
    Code:
    //try
    //{
    	if (a) do { f( b); } while(1);
    	else   do { f(!b); } while(1);
    //}
