Hi,
 I'm having trouble setting up a TCP connection manually in a program.  I'm
sending the packets manually, but can't seem to get anywhere after the SYN, and
ACK reply. Does anyone know where to look?  Can it be found in a RFC?

Maybe your problem is that your kernel resets the connection
just after the SYN/ACK is received. If is the case, filter the
outgoing resets, since your kernel doesn't know that the SYN/ACK
refers to your raw connection.
