Subject: Question about raw_socket

Hi there,

I'm using recvfrom with a raw_socket and I was wondering if the frame
"captured" was totally blocked or if it will be passed to the rest of
the other processes or daemons or whatever ?

I mean: If I'm "sniffing" traffic, will my network be blocked or not ?

Thx,
Mindiell
