Hello,
I want to communicate with some ethernet hardware (not a PC) wich is
something like a "stand alone" ethernet card which do not have anything like
an IP stack. Where I can can some windows C sourcecodes to send and receive
data over ethernet?
Maybe there are better newsgroups for posting this request?
I am glad about any information.
Thank you and regards
Mark

The answer is that you cannot communicate without a protocol!

You may want to look at some of the protocols like DECnet, etc. which do not
have a network layer.

You can do it using a raw socket in Linux. There's some sample code
at:

s03.html

Try searching for "linux raw ethernet sockets" in google groups.

In Windows, I don't think it's possible without a special driver.
Perhaps WinPcap has this capability? See http://www.winpcap.org. It
can send packets as well as capture them.
