need little help

Dont beat me http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif I&#39;m not familiar with uClinux, but I should ask you all. 

My system consist of uClinux 1.4 and Altera Dev Board on Cyclone II. I&#39;d like to write a C program to work with network (may be sockets, may be packets decode).  Is there any libraries for using the network?  Where may I find some information about this stuff?  Thanks to all.

Now I recognized that I need a PCAP library under uCLinux. 

How can I port it under uCLinux? Or may be anyone had already done that?

Hi, 

 you can already do a lot things , if you try out raw sockets (UDP, ICMP, TCP/IP). If you do so you can get even a better performance of your network throughput. But this has also an disadvantage. You will have to take care all about the protocol, linux doesn&#39;t do this at this level.
