tcpdump only captures incoming packets in a tcp connection

Hi, all I wrote a program based on tcp and put it on a PlanetLab node A. The program initiates a tcp connection with another host B(tcp listening port 30000). I used tcpdump on planetlab node to capture packets without any filter tcpdump - i eth0 I notice all the packets I captured are only incoming packets, the outgoing packets like TCP SYN packet and TCP ACK packet are missing. On Host B I also use tcpdump and I can see the TCP SYN and ACK from A I tried wget and udp sending on the Planetlab node and I can capture outgoing packets. So this means tcpdump on Planetlab node can be infuenced by specific program? what are potential reasons for this? thanks!
