I've been trying to figure out an issue for some time where pcap based utilities like tcpdump and ngrep get corrupt packets from veth interfaces within OpenVZ guests.

I had chalked the issue up to being simplely a virtual networking issue. But I find that by running quests with x64 environments, the problem goes away. I think this is related to running the suggested configuration of 64bit hosts and 32bit guests. Unfortunately, I don't want to rebuild all my guests into 64bit VMs. Has anyone got a solution other than running pcap from the host machines?

Any help would be great,

David
