A minor update:
http://www.almesberger.net/tcpcp/tcpcp-4.tar.gz
The main changes are that TCP_KICK has turned into the slightly
more general TCP_CP_FN option, and that I've written down a few
thoughts on "real" checkpointing in doc/README.CHECKPOINTING
The funny thing is that, when I started writing, I suspected that
checkpointing wouldn't really be possible, but then I realized
how it might actually work (okay, with a few hacks, but ... ;-)
The patch is now relative to 2.5.47.

Version 4 (15-NOV-2002)

- upgraded to the 2.5.47 kernel
- added doc/README.CHECKPOINTING with a few reflections on how tcpcp could be
abused for "real" checkpointing, where the previous connection owner suddenly
dies

- renamed tcpcp_kick to tcpcp_activate
