my virtual topology is:

all host is linux backtrack 64 bit:

when i ping 10.10.8.2 from 10.10.7.2 2 packet are sent.one with TTL 64 and one with TTL 63.one with TTL 64 from mac of 
10.10.7.2 to mac of 10.10.7.1 and one with TTL 63 from mac of interface 10.10.8.1 to mac of 10.10.8.2

Mr. Salehi,

I'm not certain this is your problem, but I ran into a similar problem while testing a snort inline installation on my 
ESXi testbed. I was trying to do an inline test with snort between two vswitches and ran into problems consistent with 
what you are seeing. I had to allow promiscuous mode on the vswitches the inline interfaces were connected to, or it 
wouldn't work.

I would recommend the following:
1. If you are on an ESX/ESXi server, ensure that the vswitch security settings allow promiscuous mode -- for BOTH 
switches your sensor is connected to.
2. Verify that both interfaces have promiscuous mode enabled (e.g. does ifconfig -a report PROMISC for both eth1 and 
eth0?)
