transmitting raw ethernet frames

Hi. I'm trying to transmit raw ethernet frames onto the wire. Please,
can someone tell me how to do this? I've got as far as opening a
PF_PACKET/SOCK_RAW socket, but am having difficulty sending to the
ethernet device (/dev/eth0); a simple write(sock, frame_buf,
frame_buf_len) doesn't seem to quite cut it. What am I missing?

Cheers,
Kenvor.
