I'm wondering why some UDP packets of the MS messenger protocol (with the usual

check sums regardless whether sniffed at ppp0 or eth0 interface.
Maybe your wireshark is broken? I've tried wireshark and tcpdump
here and the sums look fine.
and I'm wondering why it is still possible to capture such packets at eth0.
tcpdump happens before the packet goes into the IP stack which
is whare iptables lives.
