Hi Mike,<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for ur reply. It's working now with the option spoof_source<BR>
It requires libnet also to use this option while compilation.<BR>
Installed libnet and used the following:<BR>
./configure --with-libnet=path_of_libnet-conf --enable-spoof-source<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for ur help,<BR>
