From the Dept. of Bugfull software

Well, we all write perfect code and test it adequately. Despite this incredible amount of effort and testing sometimes bugs do slip into the code. Sometime the programmer should be taken out and shot.

The last released version of my random packet generator had a few horrendous bugs which I really should have never allowed. They were all linked to forgetting to initialise variables, surprise, surprise.

So, I fixed those and then added a few "features". The new code has been "enhanced" with IP checksumming, valid IP hlen enforcement and IP version number forcing. This makes it just a little easier to get through TCP/IP stacks.
