Hi,
       Can you tell me how I can hardcore a new option
( 1 bit option ) into the tcp header option field( I am using Red 
Hat Linux 7.1.) which the sender can optionally enable and the 
receiver can read it. Additionally could you tell me any site 
where I could read more abt it. I would like to add a system call 
to my program which can hardcore this option into the header 
everytime it is called. So, please tell me what the system call 
should do to do the job.
               Thanking you
               Murgan
