Hi All,

 I am trying to get tcpdump working with my 3com 3c589c card, 
tcpdump works fine for broadcast packets and those addressed to 
the freebsd box, but I'm not picking up any other packets on the 
network...

 I have pseudo-device bpfilter 4 in the kernel config file and 
when tcpdump is running ifconfig zp0 includes the PROMISC flag.

 I know that this Should work... Is anyone having success with 
the same setup? I'm running 2.1.0-RELEASE with the zp0 driver from 
2.1.5-RELEASE (They're almost exactly the same) 

 Your advice will be greatly appreciated!
