OK, after some more testing, things become clearer ...

joining eth0.3 gives this strange unreliable behaviour...

Joining eth0 , and i can see the packets always floating in with tcpdump -p -i eth0.3 (or -i eth0)

But my application won't get the packets !!!

Maybe this is because i'm using pselect() to wait for incoming packets ?????

Question: Should it possible to join on a VLAN device ? Or is this something bad ???
