    I can send raw ethernet frames by calling socket(), then bind() then
    calling send() with my frame as the data. My frame is a broadcast
    packet with some data. Now I want to turn around and capture packets
    off of eth0. I want to sniff for particular packets that are responses
    to my broadcast packet. If I call recv() right after my send() it will
    just hang. So what do I need to do to capture packets?

    Thanks,
    Tom
