I can't figure out how to use the pcap transport within a working
bridged environment: do I need a dedicated interface on the host to
attach to or can I reuse an interface already bound to a bridge?
I've got 'eth0 up promisc' on the host, attached to a bridge, I want to
start a UML instance with pcap transport to have access to all the
packets on the bridge, so I thought I would do: eth0=pcap,eth0,promisc
But the interface does not show up in the guest, am I missing something
or is there another way of achieving the same thing?
I can attach a normal tun/tap promiscuous interface to the bridge but
that is no use, it will not get all packets as the bridge will discard
any packets not destined to its mac address.

Thanks
Antoine
