hello, i want to send a packet with a forged ipv6 address. i tried using sendmsg() with ancilliary data, but it seems I can only select an address that has been configured on my system. if I select an arbitrary ipv6 address that i want to forge, i get "can't assign requested address" (in freebsd). isn't it possible to forge an ipv6 address with sendmsg()? note: if i use a configured address, my code works perfectly. so the error message i'm getting when trying to forge an ipv6 address does not seem to be related to a bug in my code. thnx, /m
