[Tutor] Raw Sockets

[G Kiran]

Hi,

    Raw sockets are much misunderstod i guess.. python documentation does
not provide much on this...though it just about says that its implemented.
but similar calls to ones in unix donot work

Specifically what i need to know is that how do i recv data from a raw
socket...
My reqmt is to monitor all traffic coming from an physical interface like a
lan card in python.. without using any third party modules...with just
socket libraries can i recv all the data coming in?

even a lead...clue in this direction will be highly appreciated

thanx in advance
