libpcap linux direction

["David H. Lynch Jr." <dhlii () dlasys net>]

    I am using libpcap under linux as a pseudo NIC for an embeded system
emulator.
    I have no difficulty trapping a linux interface and sending and
receiving packets to the outside net.
    However, I am unable to send/receive packets to the IP of the
interface I  am trapping.
    I have tried adding a  pcap_setdirection(pd, PCAP_D_INOUT) which
succeeds but changes nothing.
   
    a clue would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you
