    receive the packet as such and modify its contents and then forward it..its a part of my research work.....change few field details and den forward it my another code(which acts as a server)....and do let me know if its possible or not

    Thank you

    You can do it . Normally the whole packet will store as a structure .So when you receive a socket you can just change the particular structure member ( part of the packet ) then you can forward it .

    I think you are using send and receive functions in you socket program.Instead try with sendto ,recvfrom functions you will get the address and port of the other informations in the packet .

    man recvfrom
    man sendto
