a bit more detail would be useful -- what address is the server bound to?  is 
your code online?  what platform are you on?  what output do you actually get?  
have you tried tcpdump on the various interfaces involved?

sorry-- not sure i understand the question: if you're building the client as a 
an application using the unix/direct backend then it is running as a program on 
the local machine using the tap, isn't it?
