motzi has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello monks, my question is: is someone knows where to get a Net::RawIP for windows? (port?) or is there a similar module I can use to format IP packets?

    Depending on what you're doing Net::Pcap could work for you. If you're trying to generate IP packets Socket can generate packets as well as a number of Net modules. Net::Ping, for example, can generate ICMP packets and has some TCP options as well.

    it looks like this module is not cross-platform yet as I got this while trying to install:
    Set up gcc environment - 3.4.2 (mingw-special) Sorry,ethernet related methods are not implemented on this system Sorry, the ifaddrlist function is not imlemented on this system Sorry, the rdev function is not imlemented on this system Compiler: gcc
    error messages have typos btw :p
