hi!
Any body know where the Tcp/IP source code resides in Linux Os?
Please reply me if you know.

/usr/src/linux-2.x/net/ipv4 - for ipv4 tcp/ip code
/usr/src/linux-2.x/net/ipv6 - for ipv6 tcp/ip code

the source code tree information is there in many books.
including "the linux kernel" by "david rusling" freely available on net

everytime you want to search something,

you can try

eg
whereis tcp/ip

then it will list all the files which includes this string..see if this can help you in the future~~~

or if you want to find the location of a file
you can try

eg
locate config.h

Thanks for your reply in my post~~~~
But I still try it~~~
