Hmhm. I tried the -L  flag, because tcpdump reports errors when i don't use 
it.
The error messages look like this:

19:51:12.905157 IP truncated-ip - 66 bytes missing! 10.0.2.2.32769 > 
10.0.2.1.4711: UDP, length 120

When i use the -L flag, tcpdump shows 

19:53:36.401006 IP 10.0.2.2.32769 > 10.0.2.1.4711: UDP, length 120

And that's what i would expect :)

Same result with -p

Sure :)

There's no firewall involved.

The application is self-written and works on IPFIX [1] data.
I recorded that IPFIX traffic and i'm now trying to replay it. Everything 
works fine with live-traffic.
I don't think it's a problem with my app, because no data is passed to it when 
tcpreplay runs (recv() on the UDP socket does not return)

I put the dump on my webspace, because it's too big to send it by mail (about  
1 mb)
