Hello Aaron,
thanks. Then i think i missunderstood the bride concept.  I think i am 
looking for something like a "tcpclone" or "tcpcopy"
I took a short look into the code and in src/bridge.c:407 there is the 
following block:

     /* first, is this a packet sent locally?  If so, ignore it */
   if ((memcmp(livedata->options->intf1_mac, &finder.key, 
ETHER_ADDR_LEN)) == 0) {
         dbgx(1, "Packet matches the MAC of %s, skipping.", 
livedata->options->intf1);
         return (1);
     }
     else if ((memcmp(livedata->options->intf2_mac, &finder.key, 
ETHER_ADDR_LEN)) == 0) {
         dbgx(1, "Packet matches the MAC of %s, skipping.", 
livedata->options->intf2);
         return (1);
     }

I just commented this out and now i looks like i get the outgoiung 
packets also. Is it enough to just remove this block to get the intended 
behavoiur ?

Regards,
Oliver
