Doesn't work on loopback. #102

It looks like it is working but it never logs anything. I have a resolver running and my resolv.conf has nameserver 127.0.0.1 and lookups work fine but passivedns never sees anything.

did you figure this out?

No but I didn't really spend much time. My guess is that the layer 2 headers are missing or different on loopback so the packet decoding just doesn't work right.
