Hi,
 
I am running tcpdump3.4 on RedHat 2.2.18 

The tcpdump output prints a flag right after the
timestamp which is not reported on the man page. It is
normally the '>' or '<'  depending on the
directionality of the packet. But sometimes it prints 
'P' and it looks like that the packet is duplicated as
 i see another instance of the same packet but delayed
by a few microseconds. Does that have something to do
with the promiscuous mode. (Having -p or not in the
options does not affect this) 

Just so you know I am using GRE tunnels and this above
capture was on eth0. Here is the actual capture
command

tcpdump -nl -tt -pi eth0 tcp port 80

So can you explain why am I seeing those duplicated
'P' packets

thanks,
Joe
