How to read raw data sent to a port (python)

Question

I just want to intercept raw data (hex)--headers and all--sent to a port, and relay them over an xmpp server. Then I would like to be able to replay to the port with hex I receive in a similar manner.

I tried raw sockets, as described here, and got the same error. I am not sure how to use pcap (the one for python) to do this.

Have you tried pylibpcap? Looking at an example it looks pretty straight-forward to use.

Your right, given the example, that does seem like it would do the trick. Thanks. – Alex Eftimiades Apr 04 '12 at 17:06
