When listening on an ethernet interface, are the packets you see from yourself intercepted inside the network stack, or are you actually sniffing them off the wire? I'm helping someone track down corrupted packets he's seeing in tcpdump, and I'd like to know if I can locate where the corruption may be occuring more exactly.
