Subject:   BPF not working?

I'm trying to get trafshow and tcpdump working on my system, but I'm
finding that all the traffic that I can view is data going to and from my
box along with stuff to the broadcast address.  Any ideas why this is
happening?  I've compiled BPF support into the kernel and the devices are
there, and both trafshow and tcpdump both run fine, so I'm a bit puzzled as
to why the thing isn't working.  The funny thing is that I see a lot of
packets showing up as input errors, which I think might have something to
do with it.

The machine runs NATd with ipfw in open mode, and has two ethernet cards.
ed1 is the external network, and ed0 is the internal.

Thanks in advance,

Leonard
