Packet duplication is usually caused by the virtual NIC drivers of vmware (or in any case their networking virtualization layer). I've seen this kind of problems with vmware workstation, but I've never used vCenter (which I believe is just a management tool for a cloud of VMs using VMware server or something similar).

I have installed the same vista image on a physical machine, and still see packet duplication. Since it's only got Service Pack 1 installed, I'm now installing Service Pack 2 and will check whether the problem persists.

Have a nice day GV From: rouli Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2010 6:04 AM To: winpcap-users Subject: [Winpcap-users] Injected packets are duplicated on vmware I'm trying to figure out a setup issue and would appreciate any help. I have a vista virtual machine and a program that injects packet to the network using winpcap. Every injected packet is duplicated, where the second packet is the exact copy of the original packet but only the IP's checksum and TTL are changed (TTL decreased by one). For example, if I inject an ICMP echo request using winpcap, the target machine actually gets two requests. The duplication happens on the vista machine - I've validated this by using wireshark. Any ideas of what can cause such an issue?
