do you mean sack data being sent as a tcp option? dont know, lots of other questions arise (like timestamp on all the segments would be the same?).

most recent (dont know how far back) versions of netstat display /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/netstat (with the Linux TCP MIB), so netstat -s should show you most of whats interesting. Or were you referring to something else?
ifconfig -a and netstat -rn would also be nice to have..
thanks, Nivedita
