I would check how you have your route configured first to see if it is set
to respond to the ARP request. Can you give us a dump of /sbin/ifconfig
and /sbin/route so that we can get a better idea of what your machine is
like?

Probably not. From my understanding of the Linux TCP/IP stack is that it
handles the opening of ports and then just forwards whatever comes in on
those to the program that wanted it.
