Although David's response was somewhat harsh you have to understand that
this list consists mostly of people that do this on their spare time.
Moreover, Linux is based on people doing things freely and, therefore,
other people (newbies if you want) must be prepared to do a lot of work
themselves or pay for it (unless it's a project that is so exciting that
these gurus want to do just for the fun of it... ). Many people are
certainly prepared to do others work if they get a fair compensation for
their lost spare time.

However, as a recent newbie myself I agree that it could be quite
difficult to get the basics of the networking stack. Besides the actual
source code these links have helped me a lot

http://kernelnewbies.org/documents/ipnetworking/linuxipnetworking.html
http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/khg/HyperNews/get/net/net-intro.html
http://www.gnumonks.org/ftp/pub/doc/packet-journey-2.4.html

Perhaps other people could contribute other links. One that I certainly
would like to have is the link to the linux-hacker central where one can
get information of just about anything about linux hacking; perhaps
there is none. My experience is that this information is spread all over
the place and many "promising" links points to non-existent pages.

Cheers,

Björn
