Hi David,

you should do an
# modprobe af_packet
as root (or on system startup), so that the linux netlink features are
available.
That is something I will have to add to the documentation, since
we added the recognition of source addresses to the implementation,
and that feature needs a routing socket.

As you mention, you can also recompile a new kernel, that has the
netlink feature statically compiled into it. But the above should
do the trick.
