    Hello all,
      I am developing a distributed application based on MICO (mico-2.3.9),
    which uses Packet Capture Library (PCapLib).

      In the code, I create a posix thread to execute the pcap_loop function
    (this function waits until certain number of packets have been captured
    or infinite if the number is 0). When PCapLib captures a packet and
    pcap_loop is running it calls to a handle function inside the same thread.

      This schema is working correctly in a linux machine, so when a packet
    is captured an CORBA event is sent to clients. But, when the server is
    running under FreeBSD 5.0, the handle function isn't executed when a
    packet is received. In FreeBSD the handle function is executed, for each
    packet, after certain time (maybe when the buffer of PCapLib is full),
    which is a problem because it sends events too fast to clients so the
    CORBA event service fails.

      Why happens this?

    Thanks and Regards
