thanks guys for the great help, i can now continue my coding, but due
to my work load, I cant allocate much time for research and reading
good stuff. im just doing this in my pleasure time.
one last question: if SYN starts a new tcp stream, what are all other
possible flags to end a tcp stream?

again thanks!
