Native L4 network application

Hi,

I am interested in writing a native L4 application which is able to communicate over a network and the paper "Unmodified Device Driver Reuse and Improved System 
Dependability via Virtual Machines" gave me a general idea of how 
the network communications can be achieved through driver reuse. However, for starters, I am unable to find instructions which will help me to 
get a simple application to send packets across a network to a server.

I have trawled through the afterburner directory and found afterburner/Documentation/L4Ka-Afterburner.tex 
which seems a bit dated but potentially informative. This however 
references some files which cannot be found anywhere within the 
afterburner folder nor was I 
able to find  a full pdf version of this document . If anyone could point 
me to where I can get all the required files to compile this tex file or point me to a full pdf version that will be very helpful.

Furthermore, I am able to compile and run a dd/os but I don't know the 
credentials to log into the system, is this documented some where?

Any suggestions which will point me in the right direction are welcome.


Regards,
David
