Hello,

I'm developing an IP packet sniffer tool and have run into an apparent
problem, possibly with pcap_loop.  Two NICs are hooked into a CISCO ethernet
switch.  The lines are both monitoring 1 ethernet switch port.  So, in
essence, two packets with the same ID (ip_id) extracted from the ip
structure (see ip.h) are basically the same exact packet read at the same
time by both lines.  When compared, the two sniffers reporting the unique
packet match up the first couple hundred or so bytes of data.  After that,
all bytes are inconsistant and apparantly random.

We reloaded the pcap library to 0.6.2.  Now the issue is the sniffers
compared the unique packet exactly, except all bytes after the 100th byte or
so are 0's.  Any known bugs?

Versions
CISCO Catalyst 2900 ethernet switch software version 11.2
Linux 2.4.18-6mdk on a Dell
KDE desktop 2.2.2
KDevelop 2.1beta

Thanks
