Hi Everybody,
Does anybody have more information or refer to the relevant sources
regarding why the following call is not supported on the 400?:
socket(PF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_TCP)

The help text doesn't say much:
When the socket type is SOCK_RAW, you can specify any protocol number
between 0-255. Two exceptions are the IPPROTO_TCP and IPPROTO_UDP protocols,
which cannot be specified on a socket type of SOCK_RAW (if you issue
socket(), you get an error with an error code of [EPROTONOSUPPORT])

Thanks
